About Me

Oslo, Norway
Welcome to my blog! I am a wife and a Mommy of three. We have 2 daughters, Reagan and Hayden and a son, Grasyon. Here I write about our life happenings and try to capture memories the best I can. I hope this helps keep those close to us, in Texas, Iowa, Illinois, and beyond, a little more up to date while we're away. Enjoy!

Sisters here!!

We decided that traveling on a plane with a 4mth old baby could be quite a challenge for me to do alone so we flew my sister to California for a few days. That way when Reagan and I flew home sister would be there to help out! She was only in town for 4 days and the time flew by. We basically just Christmas shopped and ate!

I realize now more than ever that I will never again travel lightly. Granted we were packed for 2 weeks, but the amount of stuff we had was amazing. Between us girls we had a diaper bag, 2 carry ons, a car seat, a stroller and 2 big luggage's! Everything went great on the flight, we weren't delayed any Reagan did wonderful and no one else sat next to us so we had an open seat for Reagan to play.

Once we arrived in Houston we gathered all our things, went to the baggage claim to collect my bag, carried ALL our stuff to the parking garage, found sisters car, loaded the car, installed the car seat, drove towards the exit to pay and realized......WE FORGOT SISTERS BAG AT BAGGAGE CLAIM!!! With all the stuff we had we didn't realize we were missing a bag! So we pulled over into a handicap parking spot and ran back into the airport heading towards baggage claim. Sister was circling around our carousel panicking because all the luggage's we gone! I just happen to see a guy wheeling a stack of unclaimed bags and notice that hers is on there. She runs over to the guy to tell him that was hers. He asks for her ticket and she realizes its in her jacket pocket, so then he needs an id. She pulls out her wallet and it's also in her jacket.....IN THE CAR!! Finally, she shows him her credit card and off we go with her luggage. PHEW!! At last, off we go with all our bags. We had such a fun trip, I don't know what I would have done without all her help. I love her so much!
