One Snowy Christmas!



We left Omaha on Tuesday anticipating this BIG storm. We thankfully got to MN without any problems. Steph and Trent finally made it to Willmar Christmas Morning. We are so thankful that they got there safe...even though the roads were pretty bad. THANKS UNCLE TRENT for driving so careful!!!

We had a good time opening presents and spending time together. My Dad had been out plowing snow so he was pretty tired but we still had fun. Addison was surprised by Santa Nana and Papa with a Horsey! She had been asking for this horse since we saw it! She wasn't as excited as we thought she was going to be but she did love it. She has taken to feeding it and loving it! Addison really wasn't too interested in opening presents. She was more concerned about helping everyone else. And of course playing with whatever new toy she had opened. So it took a lot long than normal but it was fun to watch Addison.

We left on Sunday by about noon. We are sorry we missed everyone Sunday afternoon but we were glad to have left when we did to have a bit of daylight to drive in. Our trip as far as Worthington, which normally takes 2 hours took 3! Hwy 71 was not good at all. But once we got to Hwy 60 and down to I-29 it was smooth sailing.

Omaha got A LOT of snow! We were worried about even getting in our driveway! We have ANGELS for neighbors and there was no snow at all in the driveway or on the sidewalk!! Thanks Vernon!!!!! We appreciate it SO MUCH!!!

Now we are home again and just relaxing. Bill has to go to work this week but Addison and I are going to clean and reorganize new toys!

We hope that everyone got to where they needed to go for the holidays safely! We had a wonderful Christmas and were blessed by many friends and family!

Lotsa Love from Omaha!!
