After 12 hours of travel and 2 plane rides, I finally arrived to Texas! (FYI: Word to the wise, NEVER, and I mean NEVER give up your seat on a flight for a voucher no matter what the price they try to entice you with! That was the beginning of the end of my day…so I suggest NEVER doing it…moving on….) Since the flight, it’s been smoooooth sailing! I just can’t get enough of the sweetest little girl ever! On the way home from DFW, we stopped at Rosa’s Tacos and got three delicious tacos for $3.33. What a steal! Everyone was a bit tuckered out (especially me and Nadia) so we all fell asleep pretty quickly. The following day I just sat around and played with Nadia. I got to meet the little guy that Louanne mentors (who’s just the sweetest little dude), I got to see the church that Mike, Louanne, and Nadia go to and then it was homeward bound for a nap. I heart naps almost as much as Nadia does! Like my day could not get any better, we woke up from naps and got pedicures! Now Louanne and I are the proud owners of red toes and snowmen on our feet. 
And I’m pretty sure everyone in the nail place (Exotic Nails in case you heart our snowmen toes SO much that you want your own…the fine artist’s name is Tony) loved little sweetness. Â How could they not?? Duh! 
She sat patiently on my lap, mesmerized by the bubbles and the massage chair’s remote control. Â It was quite the fun times! 
Well after that, we came home…Nadia napped it up and Louanne and I did what we do best, we chatted it up! For all of you that know her (and possibly know me), we are non-stop chatter boxes when we are together. I love it so much! And don’t deny it, you do too! Once Nadia woke up, the gang went to Michael’s and purchased a gingerbread house that we will assemble today. We picked up some frozen pizza as well and grubbed down with a smorgasbord of food! 
What can I say? This has been a fabulous trip SO far! I get to eat a bunch, hang out with my sister and brother-in-law and play non-stop with Nadia (the sweetest baby in the whole wide world).
A bit of Thankfulness for this Thursday:
- I am thankful for the insight my sister and Mike impart on me.
- I am thankful for Mike’s sarcasm. It makes me smile 🙂
- I am thankful for Loua’s (pronounced Luuuuaaaaa) hugs. They also make me smile 🙂
- I am thankful for Nadia’s kisses.
- I am thankful for Nadia’s silliness.
- I am thankful that Nadia recognizes me and smiles every time she sees me.
- I am thankful that my parents gave me the plane ticket as my Christmas gift. It was the best gift they could have ever purchased for me.
- Lastly, but most importantly, I am thankful that my mom is who she is because she is a wonderful woman. I love you MAAA!
