Blizzard of '09

Everyone has recovered from whatever bug was going around. Luckily, Tracy never got it. We got most of our chores done and even got a day of snowboarding in on Wednesday at Breckenridge before heading to the East Coast for Christmas. We left Colorado Thursday morning, stayed in Independence, MO Thursday night, then Cambridge, OH Friday night, driving in the GMC Yukon...all of us, including Stan this time.

The DC area got almost 2 feet of snow over the weekend. Which made the last day of our road trip a little more interesting. Luckily there were not a whole lot of cars on the roads. It was very eerie getting on the Beltway at 5:00 p.m. and not seeing another car for a couple miles. It took twice as long as it was supposed to...but we did finally make it to Grandma and Grandpa's house in Burke. Casey was a great traveler yet again. Frisco was too.

Casey has been having fun playing with Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Kelly, who flew in Sunday. Aunt Marcy, Lily and Jack came over Monday to go sledding. We stayed outside for hours playing with the neighborhood kids, teaching them how to do a sled train and how to make a jump. Casey wasn't too sure about sledding herself, but she had a great time watching everyone else sled.

Here are some pix. Merry Christmas!!
