We made it home safely last Saturday. I say safely because Ja was driving a big moving truck, it was supposed to snow that morning, and the roads were wet. The cars in front of us were kicking up dirt on our windshield so we tried to clean it with wiper fluid only to find out that the fluid was gone. We could barely see out of the windshield. Ja was moving his head all around trying to get a good view. We stopped at the next gas station to clean the windshield and buy wiper fluid. This station was very busy with people cleaning their windshields and buying wiper fluid. Darin and Devin were driving our car and said that our wiper fluid was gone too. I went to pour more in only to realize that it wasn't gone, it was frozen! Our truck's was frozen too so there was nothing we go do but drive with a terrible dirty windshield. We welcomed the big rig trucks because they kicked out enough water that we could use the wipers to clean the windshield and see much better. Thank goodness it didn't snow at all and the weather was great. We stopped for lunch in St. George and our wiper fluid finally unfroze. We eventually made it home after 10 hours of driving. Moving trucks sure make the drive longer. But, the drive was worth it and we are so glad to be home for a few months.
That night our family was nice enough to help us move everything in the condo. We set the couch up and my dad set up our bed. I've spent the last couple of days unpacking all the other boxes and trying to find a place for everything. The condo is huge compared to our tiny apartment and we love it! I'll have to post pictures later.
I hope that everyone is enjoying the Christmas season. Have fun with family and friends and have a Merry Christmas!

Ja and Laura - I'm so glad you made it home safe. What a scary drive. We are so sad that you have moved away. The only thing that makes me feel better is dreaming that we moved with you. Right now it is snowing really hard outside. I wish I was in California!
