It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. . .



Yesterday and the day before, we made the trek up to the great white north. While we can usually make the drive in one day without a problem, the weather sitaution was cause for concern so we left early and took 2 days for the trip. The drive was quite uneventful--especially between Tulsa and Kansas City where we could not find a single place to stop and eat. (I am still very puzzled as to where the few people that live there get their food.) But the last 15 miles of teh journey was quite an ordeal. My sisters had made a snowman named Olive (to the snacks used for her eyes) in anticipation of our arrival. After waiting quite a while, they realized we were not coming any time soon. Without going into too much detail, let's just say that the dear old Cadillac was not prepared nor was it meant for this type of weather. But with some help from a few yokels, the sheriff, and my sister's boyfriend's dad, we finally made it!
The picture below is what it looked like when we left Dallas. The difference is hilarious!
