We made it to Oregon safely. It was a very long car ride, but the kids and dog did well. We hit some bad patches starting in Wyoming, then off and on until we got here to Mom's house. It has been snowing pretty much daily since we got here, which is very unusual for this area. It has been nice and pretty to watch, but I need to get the rest of my shopping done and was not counting on this! Hopefully I will be able to get out without the kids so I don't have to drag them out into the weather. One thing we did was go downtown Portland to see one of Kendra's friends at work. It was kind of icky out so we opted to take MAX down (those in Illinois, think MetroLink) and Mason was very excited to ride the "train". It was fun, but I think it was a bit too cold for the kids. Luckily MAX dropped us nearly in front of the place we were going. Other than that, we haven't done a whole lot.
In other news. I finally heard from Mike after a week of nothing. He is doing well and hard at work in his final destination. He misses everyone and sends his love to all. I have been hearing from him pretty frequently since he reached his final destination and have been a lot more at ease. I will update everyone if I hear anything of significance from him and just on him in general.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and safe New Year's.
