Road trip!

Snow, Jazz, and enjoying the company! That just about sums up last weeks trip to Denver. Nick and I had been planning on leaving Wednesday for Denver for a few weeks. Then we got the weather report. We decided to leave Tuesday afternoon and stay the night in Laramie with Jess and McKay to beat the weather. We beat it! Until about 1:30 in the morning. We ended up getting into Laramie around 3:30 and crashed. We woke up the next morning to a good 10 inches of snow! I-80 was closed out to Cheyenne so we decided to take an alternate route. That road was at least open but roads were terrible! We made it through that canyon with only one minor incident. I was reading my magazine when I looked up to see us heading straight for the back of a semi! Nick, being the quick thinker that he is, hurried and turned the car into the side of the road instead of the truck. We did a 180 degree turn into the side of the road but we survived! Didn't even have to get out to push the car! Whew! After that, we made it safely to Denver just in time to eat dinner and Cheeburger and head to watch the Nuggets play the Jazz. Our Jazz lost, but we still had a blast! The next couple days were spent relaxing, eating, and visiting families from Nicks mission. We had a lot of fun together and getting to know each other more. Looking forward to the next trip already! Oh well ... back to reality I guess!
