a long trip

Well, we're back! There's so much to catch up on that I thought I'd do a couple of different posts to catch up. First things first...Walter graduated!! with Honors, no less :)

We had a really nice weekend with family and fun and being thankful that it was all over with.
And then two days later, we left for California....but didn't quite make it there as planned!

We missed our connecting flight in JFK and ended up spending almost 10 hours in the terminal waiting on standby. Estella managed to get in a 45 minute nap in a quiet corner:

And since we were there all day long we found all of the fun spots to play and hide:

I won't get into all of the details describing just how difficult the day was, but it was very long and frustrating...and to make a long story short, we arrived in LA safe and sound!

And we managed to arrive late enough to avoid most of the traffic!

I'll post more about the trip later, and I'm happy to report that it only got better! For now, we're off to the Farmer's Market!
