Off we go...

Buddy wanted to go to school this morning, and I needed to take his cupcakes to school anyhow, so this morning it was routine as normal. I came home and talked to Mom for nearly a half hour. Daddy is doing good and is still on the heart monitors.  He is seemily fine and most of the test they have run so far have all came back great and normal.  We'll have to wait and see what the other tests reveal.
I ran back to school to get Buddy and packed up the van to head out for Seattle.   The Man arrived and we were off to the airport. 
Unfortunately, we were there for a long time.


We were scheduled to fly out at 11:41, but we were delayed until 1:30.  It was real if-y, if we would make our connection in Minneapolis.  ugh!
We finally arrived in Minneapolis at like 3:15, our flight was scheduled to depart at 3, so we quickly ran in and checked the ticket counter and the flight was delayed but was pushing back from the gate.  We seriously missed our flight by less than :10 minutes. *double ugh!*
So we stroll through looking for dinner.   We found Snoppy.


We had been told that there was a 5 o'clock flight, but it was booked and the next would be 9:30, so we thought we'd be stuck a long time, but to our surprise, we had been bumped to the 5 o'clock flight. YEAH!
So we took the train around the airport to the new gate. LG loves the trains.

Sometimes, I don't think I know this kid.

Then our 5 o'clock flight was delayed to 5:20, then after we are on the plane and ready to go.  LG is up on what to do in case of an emergency.

The captain comes on and tell us that another delay flight is about to land and there's is 23 passengers needing to caught our flight to Seattle and hoped we could all be patience and wait. So we sit at the gate another 30 minutes and finlly get in the air about 6 PM, a full 3 hours after we were suppose to orginally fly out.
But alls well that ends well, we arrived safe and sound for Uncle Jayboy to pick us up and begin our visit with Grandpa and Nana.  The boys were too excited. M.E. too.
