Yes, we're all packed, ready to load up to go to the airport to fly back to MN, Leah checks our flight, it's delayed, not leaving until 9pm, we'll miss our 7:20 connection in Memphis for sure!
We get on the phone, get the flights changed, now we're flying on a different airline, going to Atlanta instead of Memphis and will get into MN after 11pm.
Alex hangs outside with Paw Paw and Daddy enjoying our last few hours of warm FLA weather (it was a balmy 60 degrees!). Alex is polishing up his corn hole tossing so he can beat Uncle Stevie next time:
They searched for treasures in the yard:
We say a teary goodbye at the airport, get to the counter, our plane is delayed from 6:25 until 7:40. Weelllllll, 7:40 turns into 8something, we run from one plane to the other in Atlanta, making our flight, but unfortunately, our luggage didn't. Ugh! So we rung in the New Year standing in line at Delta Baggage Claim Department, but cracked a bottle of the bubbly back at the apartment to ring in the Pacific Time New Year!!
Our luggage was delivered to us the next day, which was fine since we didn't leave the apartment...we rested, had pizza delivered and looked at houses on the internet.
Yes, I said we looked at houses, why you might ask...well, the bank has decided to drag their feet and use every excuse under the sun not to even respond to our offer, so we need a plan B. We're still hoping to get the house pictured in an earlier post, but we now need a back-up, so we're lowering our standards (ie, Andy is having to come to terms that we may not get a finished basement, but that will be okay since we won't need to do updates inside the house like we would on plan A, so we'll use that money to finish the basement). So tomorrow dear friends and family, we'll be hitting the snow covered pavement again looking at homes, say a prayer and keep your fingers crossed for us!
I'm off to dig my car out of the snow that it's been under since the 23rd so I can go to the grocery...fun, fun!
