Freezing Rain?!?!?!

Snowy-snowy Montreal is scheduled for some beautiful freezing rain this afternoon. Um, our flight is at 2:10 this afternoon.

No big deal, right? Well, it sort of is, because this is the current master plan:

• Arrive at airport at 12:20 (my girlfriend is driving us, no parking fees!)
  
• Leave at 2:10 (directly, absolutely, totally on time)
  
• Arrive at 4:10 (save an hour, I love it!)
• Meet M&D Scatliff at the airport
• Grab bags at 4:25
  
• Steal a vehicle 4:35
  
• Head to Dauphin 4:45
• Arrive at Grandma Baker's house 8:45
• Join the festivities 8:46 (including a fun gift exchange that will wait to begin till we arrive!)
  

BUT!!! If there is freezing rain, we may be delayed. AND do you honestly see any room in the above schedule for a flight delay? Yeah. Nor do I. How long can you seriously make people wait to open presents? Even though they are adults, they are human!

Thankfully we also have an amazing family in the city, that probably won't be crying to have us stay over on Christmas ;) It's selfish - I'll admit it. Last year we had Christmas eve and Christmas day morning with our Winnipeg family, so we were hoping to spend that with the Dauphin family this year, because God only knows where we will be next year.

All I pray is for the journey to be safe, and for us to be with those we love to celebrate tonight. There may be a reason why this is the way it is. I've handed it over, let's see what happens.
