I can't believe how fast the trip went. When we first got there a week seemed like such a good amount of time but it really just flew by. We left in the evening so we had most of the day to hang out. Here are Audrey and Alexis riding bikes one last time before we left.
Audrey and Phoenix each had art classes to go to. We went to the park while we waited for them and then we enjoyed a nice dinner at Panera before going the the airport.
Alexis was great on the flights again! They were a little longer going east to west but Alexis was really just so good. She kept saying her ears were popping and it felt funny.
Our layover was in Houston again and she was being so funny while we were waiting to board the flight to Sacramento.
She was eating sour patch kids and just having so much fun. I was a little worried how she would do on the last flight since it was late but she was able to be distracted with my tablet and then fell asleep for a good chunk of the flight. She was a little cranky when she woke up but was happy to play with my phone (which she NEVER gets to play with) for the rest of the time. We were really excited to see Brett when we landed. Alexis ran to him and gave him a big hug. It was really cute. It was nice to be home but the trip to North Carolina was so awesome! It was sad to say good-bye to everyone. Rachel told me that Audrey cried the rest of the night and it just broke my heart. I am so glad we were able to visit! In the days that followed after we got home, Alexis would often talk about seeing Audrey and Phoenix again and when we were driving anywhere she would say, "Audrey's house?" I am so glad that even though we do live so far apart, we are able to still see each other somewhat regularly. I am so grateful that Alexis has formed such a special bond with Audrey and Phoenix. Alexis still talks about all the things we did when we were there and I know she had a great time!
