HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRETT!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRETTSKER!! It was a great Christmas! All those little kids in one place was fantastic. To be with Christa/Brigham, Cambrie/Steve, and Buff was great too. Too bad for the sickness, and too bad the other two Groneman families were absent. :(

Things were such a blur Christmas morning with all the excitement of the little ones, here's what I *think* I got: Moveies and WII games from mom, Calendar from Dastrups, Kid Pictures from Nelsons, Peanut Butter cups from Benjamin, Blokus from C&E Groneman, ATV Bag from Buff, Candy from B&K Groneman. Thanks all! (correct me if I got something wrong!)

The drive home was scary in places. Before we got to Gallup, the freeway was down to one lane with ice patches (the other lane was pure ice for the most part). It was fairly slow going. We stopped for gas just before we got to Gallup and it was 7 degrees outside and lo and behold we ran into Buff at the gas station! Hard to say goodbye again :( As we were going through Gallup the cars in front of us started sliding sideways so I braked and we started sliding sideways. We were able to get stopped before we ran into anyone because we were going real slow anyway. It did make the heart pump though. Once we left Gallup the road was fairly good with only a few ice patches until we got to Cortez. Between Cortez and Monticello was totally snowpacked and rutted and the going was real slow. There must have been almost three feet of snow in Monticello. Moab was the warm part of the trip at 30 degrees. From there on, the roads were pretty good.

When we got home, Katie & Brett were there waiting for us and they decided to spend the night. We had dinner and then played some Chicken Shoot and Monkey Ball on the Wii. Today we celebrate Brett's birthday and Erica, Chad & Emmy are coming over. The party continues! I love my family!
