We made it back from our trip to Idaho for Christmas and we survived the cold and snow and the long car ride as well. There are lots of fun ways to pass ten hours in the van like spelling your last name with pretzels (credit goes to Dayna).
We only had two throw-up instances (neither one was in the car, thank goodness) on the way home. We stayed in Beaver, UT on New Year’s Eve where it was –10 F when we arrived. It was 11:40 pm, so keeping the kids up until midnight was pretty easy. Getting them to go to sleep after that was not as easy, but we eventually got to sleep. We got to visit with Joe and Chantelle on the way home and arrived to find everything well at home.
It was back to work and school on Monday morning. We had some rain that morning and so the roads were wet. I was stopped at a light and a truck hauling a heavy trailer slid into me and damaged the Dodge Stratus! Many tears were shed. We’re working on getting it fixed. Other than that, the transition to being back home has been pretty smooth. The weather has been nice. Till next time.
Very nice! Sorry to see the poor Stratus but glad you made it home safe. Morgan and Payton loved the letter from Isaac and have been asking when we'll see you guys again. Hopefully soon!
