David's Dedication

Here are some pictures from David's dedication in NY this past weekend. I'll post more from the weekend later.

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain....

After going about 6 months with hardly any rain, it has been raining non-stop since Wednesday. The grass is turning green again and the river I cross on my way to school is almost out of its banks. It's so nice to see rain....well....almost....

On Sunday, my nephew David is going to be dedicated at church, so we decided to fly up to NY for the weekend. We got to the airport yesterday around 4:00 for our 5:57 flight to Laguardia only to discover that the flight was delayed due to rain. Delayed so much that we would miss our connecting flight to Albany. So they decided to reroute us to Philadelphia because that flight was leaving at 6:00. (It was supposed to have left at 3:00.) So, we decided to change to Philly even though Mike thought better about it. He doesn't ever have good luck flying through Philly, but we tried it anyway. By the time we went through security and got to the gate, the flight was delayed even more....until 7:30....just like our Laguardia flight. We didn't want to get stuck in Philadelphia, so we looked for more options. They could send us through Charlotte, but what if those flights were cancelled? We'd be stuck in NC. So we switched back to Laguardia and decided to get a rental car and drive the 3 hours to Kevin's house. Our 7:30 flight was delayed until 8:00, so we didn't get to Laguardia until 9:00. When we got there, we discovered that our original 2nd flight had been delayed until 10:30. Had we kept our original plan, we would have made it to Albany by midnight. Instead, we drove until midnight and were still 90 minutes from Kevin's house. AND, we rented a car in Laguardia that had to be dropped off in Albany so we could pick up another one for the free weekend rental we were getting. (This was the cheapest thing we could do.) So, we got a hotel room, got up this morning and drove to Albany. When we got to Avis to switch out the cars, they let us keep the one we had! Yay! So, now we're almost to Kevin's house and it's noon on Saturday. We have to leave tomorrow afternoon for our flights home, so it'll be a much shorter trip than originally planned. At least it's not supposed to rain tomorrow!

For Mom....

....and anyone else who is curious about what I look like now. There's not much of one, but I do have a little bump!
