Visiting Daddy in Texas

Getting ready to see Daddy after Days and Days ! We left Friday afternoon and spent the weekend in Houston , checking out what he's been doing there this whole time. As soon as we landed the plane Alistair ran into his Daddy's arms and that's all I could have every hoped for , for both of them. They are two peas in a pod inside and out.

Some people take up hobbies or even finish novels to pass the time while the husband is away, but I transform completely and hair all my hair off. Sure hope he likes it
Got a new do for the Summer and also to give 11 inches to Locks of Love. The new look is still growing on me....hahaha

Yeah ! Our first Non Rev trip after a year and got our passes in 5 min to arriving at our gate....That's Good LUCK indeed
Preparing to Depart with our mini drawing board in tow
Here we are on the plane finally after two weeks plus of not seeing Daddy, heading to Houston. The flight was about 2 hours 40 min and kept Alistair entertained by looking out the window most of the time , then of course we were the last row on the bus , so there were other families joining us in the fun of traveling. This trip marks 20 times in flight for Alistair. Very proud of my little Rover (an Irish nickname for traveling man)
Since Jeff had to get up at 6am for Sim testing, Alistair were on our own that day looking for fun around the hotel.
Woke up early (2 hour time difference ) in Texas and ate breakfast in the hotel lobby on the company's tab and then planned on swimming in the indoor hotel pool...wellllllll that plan didn't plan out since the pool water was about 40 degrees....yikes. So we just hung around the lobby and played in the elevator. We watched Leap Frog movie three times and read our book 6 times.


While waiting for Daddy to finish his sim testing on Saturday , we walked across the street to the only restaurant and ate at Godfathers pizza....we weren't impressed
Jeff and I went to this amazing suburb called the Woodlands , all forest and lakes very beautiful , totally away from the cement and highways of Houston. Withing the suburb was the Mall , where spent some time playing indoors after being outside for hours playing....love to play all day.
While we were there Jeff got a call from his own crashpad owner and he invited him to come back and stay with him until we find a place to live out there in OHIO. I'm very happy that the base is CLE , its probably the best choice for us as a family.
Alistair met a little beaver friend in the Woodlands Mall
Alistair had a great time visiting Daddy in Texas and even brought him home with us for just one day. We miss him so much and can't wait to be all together again.
