Trip Home from Austin

I was writing an e-mail to update some family on our trip home, but then I just decided to post it! I will post more about our actual trip later!
Blurry picture, but cute! If anyone can help me clean up the pic, please let me know!
We were all excited about their first flight!

They did a good job coming home today.
I had some grace given to me:
my big bag was 51 lbs. - they let it slide,
they are getting strict on names, but the TSA guy didn't return me to the ticketing counter to put Jenifer instead of Christi on my ticket! :)
Two of my three checked bags were gone through by TSA - they left me a nice note in each - thankfully my coffee was still there!!!! They must have thought I was smuggling something! HA!

We had an adventure returning the rental in the rain -
getting through a longer security line -
a pretty full flight (where the seatbelt sign stayed on the WHOLE time, so we had to break the rules and get up because Michael was about to have an accident) -
Grant bumped a guys seat, and he wasn't so gracious -
pick up luggage - shuttle to van - load van - drive home!
Waiting for the shuttle ... wearing out Team Emmet gear.
Praying for Emmet & Wendy as they go through another round of chemo today!

Each child said it is good to be home - Home Sweet Home!
(I do think Grant said he would have loved to have stayed with Uncle Kevin!)

Fed them lunch and I took a nap! John's flight was cancelled, so he is stuck in TX. We are hoping he will get home at 10 tonight (was supposed to get in at 8:15), and we ALL look forward to a good night's rest in our beds!
