All those long lonely days are drawing closer to an end (some day), and today we got a glimpse of why we've been doing what we have. We got Sarah off the bus and drove 20 minutes down the freeway to greet the best Man in the whole world! Justin flew into Houston today (it wasn't just an hour turn around talking on the phone and feeling how close we were). This time he had a good five hours! So, we took advantage of every minute.
We met him at his hotel, went swimming, bathed the kids, went to dinner, and then snuggled in bed while we watched American Idol. This time it wasn't through the fuzz of our rabbit ears. Cable is pretty cool after all (we've forgotten; it's been too long). Oh, and the sound of tired, sleepy kids is even more cool.
How many Dad's get to hang out all afternoon in the middle of the week? It was great knowing Justin was technically "working" and getting paid to play with his family. Ah, the life of a pilot. You gotta love it! I do. My life is wonderful!

What an incredible afternoon! That is something for every child to be jealous of. :)
I love your bathing suit, Megan!
Megan! Yes, it has been years. I'm glad you came across our blog so I could find yours and see what you've been up to. You have such a cute little family. It was so good to hear from you!
How fun!!! And, in the middle of the week, even. You guys have been through some rough times to get to this point--I'm glad you had such a fun time!
I LOVE days like that! Glad you had so much fun. The life of a crazy pilots wife....good days like this are worth all you've been through.
