Headed Home

Our flight was scheduled to leave Lagourdia Airport on Wednesday at 11:30, have a layover in Baltimore and then arrive in Austin around 5:30. Yeah, didn't happen. All because of some bad weather, we were either in an airport or on a plane for 17 hours. UGH!!! So, 3 plane rides later, we finally made it home at 2:30 a.m.
Check out these planes lining up to fly out of Lagourdia Airport. I think there were a total of 11. Manhattan from the sky



Sandi is pooped after a long day!!!
I'm pretty tired too!!
Mom trying to catch a little snooze.
FUNNY!!
I'm pretty sure that I'm happy in the above picture because I've EATEN a zillion cinnamon sticks! What better to do than to eat when you are bored and stranded!

Still sleepy!!!
Because our flight from NY to Baltimore was 4 hours late, the plane in Baltimore left us. SAD!! Therefore, we were standby on the next flight out to Nashville. NO JOKE when I say that we were the last 4 peeps on the flight. When we got to Nashville, we thought we'd easily get on the flight to Austin; NOPE!!! Because of all the delays, everyone wanted on that flight. I was stressing out!! God was soooo with us, once again, we luckily made it on board and I was the very last person to get on that plane again!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm a happy person!!
Notice I'm holding a pillow and blanket? I bought them because I thought we were going to have to stay the night in the airport. I was sooo nervous!
This is what the Nashville airport looked like when we were boarding. It's 12:30 a.m. and we are ready to get home!!!
We arrived home at 2:30 a.m. and Rob had to leave for the airport at 4:30 a.m. Thankfully I got home just in time for him to get back to work.
