They Got Me Good

On Friday I went to the airport to pick up Ruthie. This visit was planned a couple weeks ago and I was so excited to have her! She called me and told me that her flight was a little delayed and to come 20 minutes later than what I had been planning. So before leaving the office I got online to check her flight status and make sure that it wasn't more delayed. Weird. It said she was getting in a few minutes earlier than the flight time was originally scheduled for. Oh well! As I'm leaving, Tony says to put Kaiya's car seat in his car so that he can take her to the park later in the day. Okay! I switch out the car seat and off I go! I'm expecting that I will hear from Ruthie while I'm driving. Surely she has landed by now. I get to the airport and pull into the cell lot. No text message, no phone call. I called Tony to have him check the flight status. He begins logging on and tells me that the computer froze. Our brand new Mac computer froze... and he'll have to call me back. So I wait some more. Then I finally wait for Ruthie. She has landed and is making her way to the exit. I pull up and glance up at the doors and I see BOTH of my sisters coming out the exit. I think at this point I squealed, jumped out of my car and yelled, "What are you doing here?" I vaguely remember other travellers looking at me to see what the ruckus was about. Those sneaky girls... We had a fun all weekend - climbed a mountain with both children, cut Kaiya's hair, and cheered like champions for the Cardinals last night. One of us - who will remain nameless nearly peed her pants when Arizona came back with that touchdown. It was fun. Pictures to come...
