After one delayed flight, one canceled flight, 2 trips to Starbucks, and 6 hours trying to sleep in JFK airport, I made it from Frankfurt to the Reagan National Airport. I have never been so thankful to see my sister!
I relaxed w/ my sister, her fiancé Mike, and their two dogs, Copper and Filson, Sunday morning; frantically searched for silver high heels Sunday afternoon; and then was off to visit my friends, Pat, Lynn and Adeline. As my sister was driving me to my friends’ house, it started to snow…and it continued for the next 12 hours! Surprisingly, we don’t get much snow in Germany, so it was nice to see (even if the prospect of another canceled flight loomed on the horizon!).
Poor Pat had to go to work on Monday morning, despite the snow, and ended up being the only one there seeing everyone’s patients for several hours. I know it was painful, but thanks for your sense of duty and responsibility, Pat! Thankfully, he made it home by late morning to play in the snow!

We tried to make snowmen w/ Adeline, but the snow wouldn’t cooperate. Pat settled for placing Adeline in a deep snow drift and throwing snowballs at me (okay, I threw a few at him too!) We headed inside when Adeline had decided she’d had enough w/ the snow and stated “All done, snow!”
I have to say, I’m very jealous of Adeline’s toys! She has a bouncy castle that I would have loved as a child!
She’s much bigger than when I last saw her about seven months ago. Now she’s coloring…
Doing puzzles….
And helping Mommy cook!
One other secret about Lynn, she’s a mean ping pong player! At seven months pregnant, she beat me easily. She was bending and twisting in ways I did know were possible!
After visiting Pat, Lynn and Adeline, it was back to the airport (thankfully my flight was NOT canceled, only delayed) to fly to my parents’. I was thankful to relax w/ my parents for two days. I was able to play chess w/ my dad (and lost twice!), go to a movie w/ my mom (He’s Not That into You-cute!), go on a walk and just enjoy being w/ my parents. It was great getting to see them!
Next it’s off to Charlotte for my friend’s wedding. More to come!
