That song is beating away in my head right now, and I'm smiling. The post will be short, as I have an hour and a half to shower, finish making the second batch of Cheese Zombies and go pick up Kailyn from the airport. I haven't read the paper yet (totally unheard of for me by this hour) as I was up early to make the first batch of Cheese Zombies. These crazily overloaded caloric dreams are a family tradition. They were my son's choice for birthday dinners (with tomato soup, of course) and were Kailyn's request for when she gets off the plane! I'm also taking them to my family Christmas party this afternoon. My sibs love them, too!
Jess is home and making us breakfast, something with bacon, eggs and onions from what I can smell so far. YUM!
Kailyn had many hours of delays leaving Paris. She arrived at the Paris airport three hours early for her flight, and then it was delayed eventually for five more hours. By the time she landed in New York, she was exhausted, and had about five hours to sleep and shower before getting the shuttle back to the airport to fly home to Portland. Jess and I stayed up until 11:30 our time, in order to call her and be sure she was up, at her request. (She also had a hotel "wake up" call, but was afraid she wouldn't wake up from exhaustion!) Kailyn was a little cranky for her wake up call, but Jess said she texted an apology later!
I received a text sometime in the night that this flight would be delayed also. Poor girl. But, I've been checking the flight online and she will arrive soon, just about 50 minutes later than originally planned.
Now, I must dash to get ready. Today is my birthday, and I'm gonna have a GOOD day!
I can't think of a better birthday for you than to be surrounded by your girls and all the love that gets generated when your family is together. I hope you feel Chris's love and energy with you today as well. Happy Birthday!!!!
