Our New Journey

The truck and my car on their way to Midland. One of the guys from the shop drove our stuff down, so it was there when we got there :)

Midland, TX.....here we come :)
So on our way to the airport we did great, got up on time, got to long term parking with extra time, each of the girls got their bags, things were going ok considering......i should have known that was the sign that things were about to change. After getting 2 girls, myself, and 3 large and i mean LARGE bags, 2 regular size bags, 3 carry ons, my purse and the girls bag with all their toys in it, on the shuttle we were off to the doors to check our bags in and print our boarding passes off. Well when i was getting off the shuttle these really nice guys noticed my struggling and offered to help. They were so nice and helpful other then they handed me some other bag and not one of mine. I didnt notice till the bus drove off.... At about that time an angel apeared....Jackie :) i told her what happened and she helped try to get it straightened out. So i checked the bags in i had and printed our boarding passes while she stayed outside trying to track the bag down and took the girls to the bathroom. Just as i was checking in i hear "wow looks like you travel light..." When i looked up it was another familiar face. Jason, a guy Dustin works with. So he took me under his wing and grabbed some of my bags and helped me corral the girls. So Jackie got my other bag back, we checked it in last minute, and then gave her hugs and kisses, and she gave the girls a travel partner (a sock monkey, and head phones for them for the plane ride) we headed through security which went well. Jason by our side running to the gate we finally arrive and i notice they are about done boarding and i asked if that was our flight and she said "YES" so we jumped on got a window seat and the four of us headed off to Midland :) We wouldnt have made it without the help of all of you!!! THANKS
The girls took turns by the window. First was Mace and she loved it. She was so good on the plane. When we got back on in Vegas, Jada took her turn and she got a little sick looking out so she closed the window off and on but all in all the girls did sooooo good on the plane, it was a good ending to a chaotic beginning.
