We started with a beautiful morning in PV knowing that Milwaukee was getting hit with a HUGE snowstorm and hoping our prayers will be answered that we will get home.
We started the morning with a YUMMY starbuck's coffee.
Then it was off to our gate for breakfast (well Sophia had breakfast) and to anxiously await our departure:
Then it was a happy moment for the family to be OFF THE GROUND!!
Even though we did get stranded in Houston, it was an enjoyable day and a half. We spent our "layover" day and headed off to one of the malls in Houston and Sophia, Kristin & Pablo were able to experience a "Build A Bear", cinn-a-bon and Auntie Anne's pretzels.
As we arrived at the Houston airport once again, we checked in our bags and were upgraded to 1st class!! What a treat and experience. We were given our "snacks" and beverages with REAL silverware, REAL glass and REAL china!! WOW!! As we were waiting at our gate, we were all exhausted and anxiously waiting for our flight to start boarding. As we were just minutes from awaiting the boarding call, it was DELAYED!! OH NO..NOT AGAIN!! Will we get home for Christmas????? Let's just rent a car and drive!! But, lo and behold, we were cleared to board and off we were!! We all did finally land in Chicago, IL later than expected. It was such a great couple of days and I was sooo happy to be part of it!!!
I will posting more later with photos from Christmas, New Year, and updates to my apartment soon!! It's been a bit crazy since we have all been back to work!!
