Annie.......and say a little prayer please - YorkieTalk.com Forums

dizpatch · 10-24-2006, 06:11 PM

I can not believe that the time has finally come to go and get Annie!

We have been waiting for her, for 4 months!

The schedule is a little crazy

but who cares!!! Not me!

I would like to ask that you keep us in your prayers during our travels. A storm came through and there is now snow in the mountains.

So how crazy our my travel plans, well it goes a little like this…..
My dear hubby and I will leave home this am(Wednesday) at 1:30 yes AM.

Travel for 3-31/2 hours across 2 mountain passes that now for some reason have snow on them, to Sea-Tac Airport.
My dear hubby is going to stay in Seattle and spend the day with his brother and hopefully get some sleep while I am flying.
My flight leaves at 6:20 AM. I get to fly into Houston(Vi, I’ll be waving from air

) I only spend 40 minutes in Houston, so lets hope my flight is on time!!! I fly into Knoxville TN at 4:20 PM. Now I do promise to not push and shove the people in front as I run to the ticket counter to meet Karen, Kim, Bear, Monkey & of course pick up and hold my little Annie.

I actually get to stay in Knoxville for 2 ½ hrs and visit with Karen and Kim!!! I am so excited!!! I get back on the plane at 6:54 pm, go back to Houston(waving to Vi, from the air

) and this time I get to spend 45 minutes in Houston. Then onto Seattle. Where at 9:00 pm my oldest daughters' flight is due to come in. She is flying home from PA(she just spent 2 weeks with her bf and his family) and dear hubby will be there to meet her. Then they have to wait 2 ½ hours for me to come in.
I heard they are making plans to head to McDonalds. My flight comes in at 11:35pm, and then it is the 3- 3 ½ hour drive home.
So we should be back home around 3:30 am on Thursday!
My other 2 daughters are home because of college and high school. So they will be waiting anxiously for us to get home!

Now the 1st thing I am going to do is sign up for the gift exchange, because I will then have Annie in our home, and then as soon as I am conscious I will post pictures!!

Thank you to everyone for all of your support and please keep us in your prayers.
