I found flights for $34 from Omaha to Orlando. The deal was too good to pass up and so the boys and are flying down tomorrow. Mario has to work next week plus Eric and Erin have to take finals. So they will drive down next weekend. We decided to open some of the gifts last night since we won't have room in the SUV to bring them down and back.
The biggest Christmas gift came yesterday afternoon when the Peter Kiewit Institute called Eric and told him that he had been selected as a Walter Scott Scholar. He already had full tuition for any university in Nebraska. But the Walter Scott scholarship will pay for EVERYTHING else like books, dorm, food, and all fees. That is huge! Mario and I are so happy for Eric. All of his hard work and extra curricular activities have paid off in a big way.
So no presents compare to that, but we did get a few small things opened last night.
