Congratulations Linda!


One of my very best friends since the 3rd grade graduated from KU Med with her Masters in Healthcare Administration. Way to go Linda !!

Here is how the weekend was suppose to go: I fly to Kansas City on Friday and spend the night with my sister in Topeka. Saturday, go to KC for Linda's graduation party, spend the night in KC, fly home Sunday. The kids would be with Robert except Saturday night they would stay with my parents.

Here is how the weekend went: My parents and the boys drove to Topeka on Friday, Emma and I are to fly out Friday evening. Our flight is cancelled due to weather. Boo! (Those weren't my exact words.) American Airlines can't get us to KC at a decent time Saturday so we move on to the next airline...Southwest. SW requires Emma have her birth certificate to prove she is under 2. I don't have her birth certificate and I don't know why so don't ask. I give up. I'm not making it to the graduation. I post a short rant on facebook and learn her shot records would work also. Soooooo, after going out to eat with Robert and Emma, I go home and find an official document that SW will accept. 9:00 Friday night, we book our flight to KC for the very next morning. Saturday morning we leave the house at 5:30 am and I'm in KC by 9:05! I got very little sleep over the weekend but it was worth it!

It was a short trip and nothing like I planned but I had a great time and Emma was wonderful on the flights...of course. Isn't she always perfect??!!

I can't believe how crazy that trip was! Glad you found a way to be able to fly. You make me feel better with the birth certificate. Birth certificates, social security cards, shot records.....I keep hiding them in places I won't lose them and then I can never find them when I need them!!!!

Congrats to your friend! Friends you've had since 3rd grade are the best. :)

I've thought about getting the boys a passport. Preston had one, but it's expired. That way if the impromptu trip was to Europe.... No problem :)
