It was about 65 degrees last night when we finally got into Portland. Despite the frigid temps (ha ha) it was an uneventful and pretty smooth plane ride. We had time for drinks, snacks and one Thomas video and then it was time for our descent. The kids love going fast during take off and landing. And Tyler is so psyched about planes right now.
After we got off the plane Grammy and Mili (my sister-in-law) met us and helped us get our luggage and get into the car. We were all starving so we met up with my brother Kevin at a Shari's in Woodburn for a late dinner. On the way to dinner Mili taught Lauren to count in spanish. Lauren kept saying "hola, dos, tres...." I'm sure she'll learn eventually, especially if Aunt Mili keeps working with her. The kids were so tired at dinner they were giddy. Especially Tyler. He was delirious and laughing at everything. They both slept the whole way home but were ready to play and read books with Uncle Brian and Grammy when we got home.
This morning the kids were up bright and early...6am early!! I'm not enjoying this time change. They had enough new toys in their bedroom so I was able to snooze for another hour while they played. Once we got downstairs the kids had so much fun playing with uncle Brian. He set up his old train track and they played and played. I let them play together and took a job (jog, oops)around the old neighborhood. The houses and streets sure look smaller than what I remember.
Back home I made BLTs for lunch. This was Uncle Brian's request but he doesn't know how to make them. (He still doesn't but that's okay)
Currently the kids are napping and I'm watching Uncle Brian and my favorite soap.... It's on an hour early here. Later we're meeting Great Grandpa Bob and my Aunt and Uncle for pizza.
I did take some pictures but I can't figure out how to resize them but once I figure it out I'll post 'em.
