Another year older

Tomorrow is Dan's birthday. We, meaning myself and the kids, plan on taking him out to dinner and then to Glenn Beck's stage show of the Christmas Sweater, which is being beamed via satellite to our local theater. I read the book and it is a very sweet and heart wrenching story that teaches the importance of facing our personal storms and the value of family and friends. Last year I took Chelsea to San Francisco to see Glenn Beck's live Christmas show and in that show he related about a 10 minute story about the Christmas Sweater. That 10 minute story made quite an impact, with Chelsea and I crying for far longer than we probably should. So the two of us are really looking forward to the full telling of this story. I hope Dan and Cody enjoy it just as much.

Happy Birthday, Dan....and how was The Christmas Sweater? I've been hearing Glenn talk about it for weeks, but no reports from "the folks".

We're in Bend with The Beloved...made it over the mountains from Portland in between storms. Drove with "cable chains" newly purchased for the rental car (don't tell Alamo!) for about 25-30 miles, limiting speed to 30 mph. But, really, no big deal.

Bend is beautiful, and we are reveling in the thought of living here in six months or so.....the snow is falling, the icicles hanging off the eaves, and it looks a lot like we remember Fort Collins. None of that is as important as being close to our Treasure - go to http://camacho.tv/, register, and see what we're talking about!
