Airport

My mom returned from a 3-week trip this afternoon and the kids were very excited to accompany me to the airport to pick her up. Since her flight was a bit late, we even had time to park and walk into the airport, which made it more of an outing. It was a gorgeous sunny day today and I felt so happy, walking across this bridge with A's hand in one of mine and E's in the other, talking about airplanes as we watched them land - and then even happier walking back out across the bridge, reunited with Mom/Granny.

The kids both opted to wear the jack o'lantern t-shirts we tie-dyed last autumn, since they pulled them out of the Halloween decorations box last night. I was impressed that the shirts still fit! We are looking forward to a quiet evening sharing pumpkin & black bean stew from the slow cooker and hearing about the trip.
