In early November Adiya took her first big trip on an airplane. And it was a big...long...long...long trip from Waco to Seattle, Washington. I had to go to one of my annual conferences and since I was going to be gone for four days, little miss got to travel with me. Fortunately, my good friend and colleague Karon traveled with me from Waco to Seattle to help out with Adi on the plane ride. Then Terri, Ben's mom, met me in Seattle to help out with Adi while I was working. Our trip to Seattle took about 12 hours after a delayed plane (which was delayed once we were already boarded and sitting on the runway...fun times with a 2 1/2 month old) and some poor navigation in a rental car. We made it though and Adi was a trooper. She did great considering the amount of time she was in transit.

Seattle was actually a lot of fun. Having Terri around forced me to get out and see the city. Generally, I am so tired at conferences that I rarely get to see the city I am in. Not Terri...she is a go getter and a site seer. We had tons of fun, ate delicious food, and enjoy hanging out just the three of us girls. We visit Pike Place Market...wow, ate delicious seafood on the water, and even made a trip to the Chateau St. Michelle Winery. We also had a very lovely and very interesting dinner with my colleague Karon's family in their beautiful home overlooking downtown Seattle. All in all it was a great trip! A big shout out to Mimi for all of her help.
