Sunny Skies, Clear Roads, and Cute Kids

So we went to Grand Junction, Colorado this weekend and.....we did not have sunny skies and clear roads while traveling. We were going there to meet the Chipmans (my sister Stacey's family) to help babysit while they checked out the area. It is supposed to be a 3.5 hour drive from Provo but unfortunately just when we were planning to leave on Saturday a winter storm hit. It took us 2 hours to go 30 miles! The drive there was treacherous until we got to Price. Dan did a great job driving and was a sport as I urged us on. But we made it and had fun with Olivia and Henry, they are such cute kids. Olivia is so excited about Santa Claus coming soon and talked a lot about the trumpet and guitar she asked him for. We played pirates, colored, and oddly enough she was entertained by watching pool (as in billiards) on ESPN for a little while. Henry is only a month old and slept a lot during the day when we had him. But that means he is awake a lot at night much to his parents chagrin. He is so cute though, he half smiles, and has little chubby cheeks. We received some of the "goodness" from the hospital that is trying to get them to move there- a hotel room, a share in the fruit/candy basket, and dinner at two of the doctors' homes. It was fun to get to see Grand Junction with the Chipmans. If only we could have made it home in the 3.5 hours though. It took 5 hours to get home and once again Dan was a very patient and a cautious driver. We forgot our cameras this trip so sorry no pictures.
