Going On An Adventure!!

Going On An Adventure!!

Yes, that’s an airplane we are (were) on!! Isn’t it beautiful, the clouds?! I was so glad Lexa had pointed it out to me!

Lexa & I went on an adventure this past week. Normally my side of the family gets together around Thanksgiving or Christmas, but sadly it isn’t going to happen this year.

However, some of us were able to pull off an impromptu get together in TX (where my parents, sister & one brother live.) My boss graciously gave me the week off, even though I had just started & Grant is always so supportive of making things like this happen. While we would have loved to take the whole family, it just wasn’t feasible at this time.

So, Lexa & I flew down to TX & spent a few days with my parents & siblings. It was such a special time! I’m very grateful for the opportunity. I know it’s always a stretch when Mom is gone, but thank you guys for letting me go! ❤

On the bus before 6am (we left home at 4:30 am!) Lexa’s first bus ride & first plane ride, too!

Eating dinner at Torchy’s Tacos with Susie & my parents the day before we went home. Lexa is not a huge fan of Mexican, so we stopped at Whataburger to get her fish & fries on our way.
Beautiful Lexa! She got this hat while we were in TX. It’s a great fit!
Everything is bigger in Texas! 🤣 I got a large iced tea & we jokingly called it “What-a-Tea!”
Susie & I outside Torchy’s Tacos. When she picked me up from the airport, I had asked her what her favorite TX restaurant was & she had mentioned Torchy’s at the top of her list. So, it seemed appropriate that we ate there our last night. (We did wear masks all the time we were together, except distanced eating & this picture) 🙂
