Sittin' In Nebraska! :)

The girls and I left last Thursday to drive out to visit Grandma & Grandpa Meier in Nebraska for a few days. We were originally going to leave and drive back to Utah on Sunday, but with the weather being just terrible across Wyoming (the interstate was shut down most of the day) we decided to wait and see what the roads were like this morning. Well, I set the alarm to go off at 6:00 and I checked the road conditions at 6:30 there were still some closures so I talked with Travis (he had to work and couldn't come with us) and then to Grandma & Grandpa and we decided that we should just stay put and not try to take off today. Wyoming DOT opened up I-80 at about 10:30, but when I just checked it, after getting back from town at about 3:00 most of the Westbound routes on I-80 were closed again. So it is a good thing we didn't go or we could be stuck somewhere in the middle of no-where! We got stuck on Elk Mountain on our way out here for about 1/2 hour, but it was a good thing that both of the kids were asleep and that was our only obstacle so far this trip. When Grandma & Grandpa came out in December, it took them nearly 2 days to get out to our house! Well, we have been having a lot of fun and I have taken a lot of pictures! I may try to post some later or I will do it when I get home, if I get home! :) :)

By the way, it is snowing outside here as I am typing this!!!! :)
