When we travel we have certain things that we do the same way every time. Things at home we do before we leave and things in Portland that we do before we leave. Since we don’t usually travel back to San Antonio together we also have things that we do for that. Usually if I [...]

Today was my usual travel day. I got on the plane in Portland and headed to Phoenix. The flight time to Phoenix is about two and a half hours. There was a cat on our plane that meowed the ENTIRE time. I am not kidding… meow, meow, meow. I thought I was gonna go crazy! [...]

Every time we go to the airport and park in long term parking I see some funny signs. I have been meaning for a long time to snap a picture of them. Well today we got to the airport with a little time to spare so JP and I walked down to the ground level [...]

I did it again! JP had a late flight into San Antonio and since Lily ditched me for the weekend to go camping with her grandparents I had a chance to wear a costume to the airport when I picked him up. I wonder if this will ever get old to him. Among a ton [...]

Today was pretty uneventful unless you consider flying an exciting thing. We woke up a little later than usual and I only had one hour to make it all the way from the apartment to the airport then through security and in line to get on the plane. Southwest airlines starts boarding about 30 minutes [...]

Our week-long vacation came to an end today. I think we were all ready to get home and back into our normal routine. We left Palm Desert around 7:00 am because the drive to LAX was about 2 hours. We didn’t need to leave that early but we wanted to stop in Santa Monica before [...]

I wanted to let you know that I will be taking a break from blogging for the next couple of days. Right at this very moment I am in row 11 seat B of a Boeing 737 headed to Portland, OR. I’ll try to take lots of pictures and share them in a few days!

I am writing this post from a 737 and at about 30,000 feet in the air. JP and I are headed to San Diego, CA aka: City In Motion. Fun Fact: The first time I ever went on a vacation with JP it was to San Diego. That was like 4 or 5 years ago [...]

Selena and I flew to Florida this morning to hang out with Angela. Since I won’t be updating for a couple of days here is a picture preview of our trip. The pilot took this picture of us in the cockpit of the 737 that we flew in!

I am not sure exactly what it is because it is hard to describe but something about Colorado really touched me. I am not sure if it is the wonderful landscape, the nice people or just the feeling I had the whole time. I would 100% come back to Colorado any chance that I get. [...]

When we were in the Boston airport this morning waiting for our flight I bought a book named Before I Go To Sleep by S.J. Watson. The back of the book says “Memories define us. So what if you lost yours every time you went to sleep? Your name, your identity, your past, even the [...]

I had an early morning flight out of San Jose, CA this morning. When I landed in San Antonio I panicked because I had no idea where we parked the truck. I knew it was in long term parking and I knew it was off to the left but I wasn’t sure what floor it [...]

This morning we woke up bright and early for our flight. This is my first Halloween that I am going to spend without Lily so we took advantage of a trip we were invited on to New Orelans. I considered wearing a costume to the airport but I chicked out and wore my horns instead. [...]

My very good friend Angela flew in from Washington D.C. today. She had told me before that she checked her bag so when I headed to the airport I was in the truck. I got about 1/2 way there and realized I was about to run out of gas. I told Lily we needed to [...]

Today we left Camano Island at 5:30 in the morning to drive down to Seattle and catch our flight home. We over estimated how long it would take to get to the airport and ended up there 3 hours early. At 9:40 am we finally got on our flight and took off, then landed in Las Vegas 2.5 hours later. [...]

This morning we headed to the airport for our direct flight from Detroit, MI to San Antonio, TX. We must have been all vacationed out because the only pictures taken all day were taken on the airplane. Lily being silly! We both say CHEESE! Lily’s best duck face!

Lily and I are sitting at Delta gate #11 in the San Antonio International Airport right now. Our flight is delayed by 20 minutes. We are not all that concerned about the delay though since we are on a direct flight to Detroit. We we both hungry so we grabbed a snack at Dunkin Donuts. Did [...]

I have been thinking about it for days and at 9:00 tonight I finally started and finished packing for our trip. Between Lily and I we will have 1 checked suitcase, 1 laptop bag and my big Coach purse that I got for Mother’s Day. Oh and I am sure in the morning Lily will [...]

JP has been out in California all week for work. Do you remember what I did back on October 18th? If you have been reading this website for awhile you know that I have done this more than a few times. I have never worn the same costume twice so in order to keep up the tradition [...]

This is the only picture I took today. It’s a picture of what I did today to amuse myself while I sat through Lily’s volleyball practice. As you guys know I love to take pictures. I usually use my camera but sometimes it is easier to use my cell phone.  I looked and as of today I have [...]

JP has been out of town for the last couple days for work. Before he left San Francisco for home this morning he sent me this picture. I have never been on a cable car. I totally called it the Rice-A-Roni thing. Yesterday he sent me this one. This picture was taken in Pacific Heights of someones [...]

Today was the last day of our vacation so we figured we better take full advantage of it. After we woke up we headed to breakfast at a place the lady inside the hotel recommended. When we stepped outside it was still cold! We walked a few blocks and found the place but it was [...]
