It is so good to be home
there is nothing quite like sleeping in your own bed, opening your own refrigerator, and using your own bathroom. it's just the simple things really
christmas was nice--it didn't start out so well
we left medford around noon on christmas eve to make our way to bend. it was snowing heavily for a lot of the way but dan grew up driving in this kind of weather so usually I have nothing to worry about.
we got pulled over for speeding of all things about halfway before we reached bend--dan was doing 66 in a 55. the officer didn't spare us a ticket either--147 smackaroos--already doubling our expenses..
we reached bend around 4:30--it took us about an hour longer then it normally would to get there. found out last minute--two of our nephews were going to be at christmas eve--that we didn't buy christmas presents for--so we stopped at ma jo's store and bought lottery tickets.
christmas eve included 16 of us--opening presents, eating, and watching the snow come down in huge flakes.....
