We have to start out our Christmas vacation with "The Snowstorm," since it caused us so much grief. We were beginning to wonder if poor Brandalyn and Barett would ever make it out to the East Coast. Barett was the only one left on his dorm floor, and the Cannon Center was closed so he couldn't get any food! Finally, two days late, they found a flight out, and we were able to start our great Christmas adventure!This picture of Reilly is on our back balcony, after it stopped snowing. It didn't stop snowing for 24 hours straight - I know for all of you in Idaho, Montana, etc. that's no big deal, but Reilly and I have never seen anything like that!
