Happy New Year!!!

Just a quick post to say Happy New Year, all. We have had some exciting times over the past little while. Amy, Andy and I all went to Utah for Christmas, so everyone got to meet Andy. It was crazy busy, but we had a really good time.

While we were there, Andy got to try rice cereal for the first time. She was not impressed. Not impressed at all.

Yummy.

Coming home was definitely an adventure. My parents drove us to the airport on some really nasty roads, and when we got there we found out that our flight was delayed. Our flight crew had gotten behind because of the weather. Well, they actually found us another flight crew and got us aboard the plane. We taxi, get deiced, taxi some more, and are finally on the runway. Off we go, hauling it down the runway, just about to lift off, and the pilot slams on the brakes. Hard. Well, back to the gate we go, a warning light came on during takeoff and so it had to be aborted. I am okay with that, I would rather we heed the warning, rather than be spread out somewhere over Provo. So, we get off the plane, and they manage to find us another one. By this time, the original flight crew has showed up, so they just get a free ride home. After that, everything went swimmingly.

To be honest, I am actually very impressed with Skywest (Delta). Even with all the problems, we were only about 3 hours late getting into Tucson. They found us another crew, and another plane, when they could have said "Sorry folks, weather sucks, plane's broken, flight's cancelled, try again tomorrow." Also, both flight crews were very friendly and apologetic. So, props to you, Skywest people.

That's about it for now, hope everyone had a happy New Year's Eve, and that you all have a great 2010.

I leave you with some photos from while we were in Utah.
