The weatherman was right....this time!!

This weekend was our annual Lorie Line, yummy supper, parents night out with the Brandel's. This ND girl was DETERMINED to get there!! We left on Saturday am traveling via Hwy 12 and had absolutely no problems! We saw many other cars traveling and no one in the ditch! My thought was that if we could get to the cities it would be NO problem to get to the concert! Well, I was wrong. It didn't take us long once we got into the cities to realize that getting to my cousins in Eden Prairie to drop off Soren was going to be interesting!! At one point, due to frozen windshield wipers, both Scott and I had our heads peaking out of the van to visualize where we were going!! We began to see many cars/trucks in the ditch. After the first 3 miles, we just wanted to get to Eden Prairie and be safe! Well, after some stressful driving, Scott pushing us out (with dress shoes on) more than once!!! We made it to Tammy's!!! Matt & Nancy were unable to make it to the concert also! SO....we met for breakfast this morning at Perkins!! A far cry from the yummy steak/seafood we were going to have last night. But, everyone is safe and no accidents were encountered by our families! It was nice to see my cousin and husband. Enjoy lots of good food, snuggle up next to the fireplace and watch movies! We are very thankful for the warm place that we had to sleep!! Apparently we should have listened to the weatherman this time and stayed home!!!
