Christmas

Holy Moly! I blinked and Christmas passed me. I cannot believe how fast Christmas snuck up on me this year. I didn't really get the chance to enjoy the pre-Christmas traditions this year. We did however, have a wonderful Christmas. First we celebrated on the 22nd with Ben's family. His grandparents come from California every year and we are priveledged to have them stay with us. Then we spent Christmas Eve and most of Christmas day with my family in Inkom. All my siblings and their kids came both days as well. Ben and I had a really good time. We were planning on leaving fairly early on Christmas day to drive home to spend time with Ben's family, but we got snowed in. My folk's live in the mountains so their road was snowed in. My dad and brother worked for about 6 hours on the fourwheeler to clear the road for us all to get in and out. BUT......the interstate was closed. Eventually the interstate opened back up and we decided to chance it. It was SCARY!!!! They should not have opened the road, but we made it home safe. Thanks to everyone for the wonderful Christmas!
