In less than 24 hours, I'll be re-united with my hubby! This makes me pretty darn happy. Flight delays, chilly weather, and mean ole boots that leave blisters on my feet however, do not! I really can't complain too much about my travel experience today. On the first flight, I sat beside a sweet woman who just became a grandmother for the fourth time. This was a fairly short ride to Dallas Ft. Worth Airport and I got a little shut-eye on it. When I got off the flight, I walked a million miles away to the next gate. The nice flight attendant ladies gave me the gate number so, thinking they knew best, I didn't even question this. This, my friends, is where the blisters came from. I got to "D16", the gate they announced, and all those folks were headed to Cancun. That just wasn't going to work. And do you know how large that airport is? I finally rolled into my actual gate about 30 minutes later. Note to self: Always check the prompter and see fo yo self!
The flight from Dallas to Anchorage was pretty great actually, considering. I got an entire row of seats to myself so being able to stretch out was amazing. This six and a half hour flight is painful usually, but what a blessing I received today when no one showed up to sit beside me. That really makes me sound like a big fat meanie, doesn't it? After boarding, we found out that we were delayed an hour. I guess it didn't matter too much because my layover in Anchorage was so significant.
I fear I'm boring you with travel details so I will stop. I just wanted to let you all know that I am back in the great state of Alaska and I'm happy to be here. I look forward to crawling into bed, going to our wonderful church tomorrow, picking up my pups, and then picking up my husband. Updates to come!
Much love,

[...] than where I was standing at that moment. All I had on was a thin long sleeved shirt and jeans (oh, and those dang boots I mentioned earlier). This is the point where I began to get flustered. I mean, all a girl wants is a warm bath and [...]
