We are here!

We are here. We arrived last night and successfully drove our rental car (which we have named "The Ice Skate") to the hotel. The car is a cute Pontiac Vibe. I am glad we went with the midsize vehicle because there is snow everywhere (well as far as the eye can see at night) and the parking lots are a little icey if they haven't been driven upon.

Adam is still asleep and I can't wait until the sun comes up so I can show him the huge mountains and do a little "I was right dance". You see last night I was able to spot them and he didn't believe that they were a) that big and b) right outside our window. They were just dark pointy things below the clouds last night but I just knew that they were there. I can see them better now but a few more minutes will do the trick. I am not sure but I think that the sun may come up behind them...

We will be meeting Katie this morning at IHOP. Stacy her coordinator from the Agency will be with us and Katie's older sister (Sabrina or Hillary, I can't remember) will come too. I have tried on my sweater to make sure that it fits. I chose red because it is my favorite color and I think we have decided to wear nice jeans for the meeting. The sky is getting lighter. We were trying to strike a balance of making a good impression but not appearing to up tight or intimidating (if we can be that). The snow is very powder like here and believe it or not is really isn't that cold outside. It is about 32 degrees and you see people wearing all sorts of things. I can make out a big mountain black against a lighter sky.

We are in a good area. There are tons of good places to eat. We went to a place called Iggy's last night. It is a Sports bar and grill. There really isn't a cloud in the sky except around the top of the black mountains. We had a great pizza and a very interesting beer. I will have to have Adam tell you about it. It had blueberry in it. There is a Krispy Kreme next door and I am vowing to completely ignore it.

Oh wow...

We are glad you made it safely through the ice and snow. After such anticipation during the sunrise we'd love to see a picture of the mountains! We hope the visit with Katie went well.

I tried to tell you about mountains...

All my love and prayers, and a bit of envy at the view,
