Yes, It's our first official snow of the season! If only we weren't driving today...It's a beautiful snow, but I'm already hearing about the crazy drivers on the roads!!! Keep Lou, mom, and I in your thoughts and prayers as we travel West to Pocatello to spend Thanksgiving with Kevin, Jenny & Leo! I'll be posting pictures from our trip west next week.

GARTH BROOKS Holy cow...What a concert. That's really about all I can say. The show was phenomenal. Mom and I left Omaha around 4:00pm Monday after work and arrived at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, MO...
