As some of you might already know, Jessicca's mom passed away on Tuesday night. She had gone to Jackson Wyoming for back surgery. During the sugery an artery was nicked and they had troubles getting the bleeding stopped. She was life flighted to Salt Lake City, but died a couple of hours after arriving.
Jess will be flying out for the funeral in Buffalo Wyoming.
Congrats to the Florida Gators for winning the National Championship! I will have to see how long Jess lets me keep the new backgound!
With the Florida Gators in the National Championship this week, the Romney's are doing our part to show our support (background & header).
We made it back to Florida.
We got a late start on Saturday morning because of a Snow advisory in Utah and Wyoming. We left Salt Lake City about 10:30 and headed across Wyoming. The roads were terrible. We saw 5 jack-knifed semi trucks, 4 or 5 rolled cars, and a dozen or so slide offs (some right in front of us). After Cheyenne the roads were dry until we hit rain after Nashville TN. Luckily we had rain until after Atlanta, so it washed the salt off of our car. We spent one night in Ogallala Nebraska, and drove through the next night. We got home about 12:00 on Monday (needing a shower).
The kids did great, and for a reward we went to Cody's Roadhouse for dinner (we didn't have anything to eat at home).
The Excursion covered in salt outside of St. Louis
We have had a great time here in Montana. The girls wanted to see snow, and they were not dissapointed! When we got here it was 22 below zero. The day after Christmas it snowed about a foot. The girls got to go out and play in the snow and ride the horses after it warmed up a little.
Here is our family letter (click on Letters to enlarge). We hope everyone has a Happy New Year.
