Well, we made it to Colorado safe and sound and in one piece! We ended up leaving on Friday around lunchtime, and went to Colby Kansas (about 9 1/2 hours). We stopped for the night and went the rest of the way this morning, which was only about 4 hours. We actually didn't see any snow until just right before Colby. This morning it was so beautiful - huge snowdrifts, and icy fences and grass that looked like glass. Mackenzie was so good. She barley fussed the whole trip, and she really enjoyed some of her new toys that she got from her Nanny and Papa. They also gave us a portable DVD player, which was really nice. She got to watch Praise Baby in the car! She just couldn't believe it when I turned it on. It is also nice now that she is eating "real" food - I could get back there with her and give her puffs to keep her occupied. Matt and I had a book on tape to listen to, which made the drive go a lot faster.
So we are here and so excited for Christmas! Mackenzie already thinks the tree is really fun, and wants to get into the presents. We will post pictures soon!
