ok so on Thursday Eric's actual 32nd birthday, we had a party planned for him with all his family in Park City, his cousins were in town and his mom was even in to suprise him for the night. So we headed up the canyon at 5 pm, by the time we got to Heber a strom was REALLY rollin in, but we were in the Escalade so we pressed on, HUGE MISTAKE, about 5 miles out of Heber, it was complete white out conditions, I was driving and I couldnt see anything, not even the sides of the road, we were barely moving and I still couldnt see anything, honestly I was pretirfied. I may have even cried a little. It was so scary to drive in. Cars all around us were going off the road and getting stuck and ect. so we decided at the first Park City exit to turn around. The kids would never make it. So Eric's birthday dinner was at Don Pedros, a Mexican dive in Heber, then we drove home, we were basically in the car from 5-9 pm in traffic or storm. I felt really bad it all happened on Eric's birthday. Lucky for us he is such a good sport, he said he would for sure "never forget this birthday". That's why we love him!

I'm glad you made it home okay. That sucks it had to happen on Eric's Birthday but like he said he'll remember that day forever. At least you got to be together as a family. That's all that matters.
I am so sorry, when eric called us and we were at the office we left right then and was in provo canyon when it all hit here. I was in the tahoe and josh was behind me in the jeep. It was scary.. Im so sorry you had to go thru that! specily on the way up to park city is the worst in a storm.. too too many stupid drivers out there! I am sorry that the birthday planns got ruled out by the storm.. but its a good thing that you guys got back to heber and home safly!!
