2015 Denise's States Trip- North Dakota


Lucas and I in the backseat. 

We had a wonderful few days with Cassidy, Mike and Lucas. It rained every day, but we also had sun most days too. Lucas is such a joy and so much fun.. We really enjoyed their new house. I think they'll be very happy there. Some highlights of Oklahoma were: Lucas, Alfredo's, playing games, the awesome theater room and watching movies, the incredible storms... It was really was a great visit there. Very humid, but still great! I love spending time with my beautiful daughter. 

We are trying to get on a flight, any flight, out of Oklahoma city now.  It's not happening very smoothly though. The loads were terrible and we almost decided we were going to wait until tomorrow when we noticed a flight that was delayed 5+ hours to Chicago. When a flight is delayed that long it is great for standby travelers as people have to jump ship to find a flight to get them to their connecting flights. We rushed (like throw our stuff in- laundry from the dryer, bathroom stuff, electronics- and run. We get to the airport and run to the gate (literally) and wait and wait. We waited for over 3 hours and then finally got to load the plane only to have them shut off the engines because Chicago is having a flow problem. Too many planes all coming in at once. So here we sit:-). After only 15 minutes we are on our way.  Can't wait to see if we can get on the last flight of the day to fargo, north Dakota. 


The Lundberg's in from of their beautiful, new house. 











Tim decided to take a meeting while we were waiting for the delayed flight to go. An enterprising fellow I married. 



They have the most amazing toilets in the OKC and Chicago airports. You wiggle your hand over the sensor and it gives you a new seat cover.  For someone always desperate to go fast, this is awesome. 



The Chicago airport is huge and has some really pretty things to look at as you walk.



Dinner for the starving travelers.



Our hotel room in Fargo was freezing when we got in there. Like 50 degrees cold! 



We went to the drugstore across the street. I wanted this sweatshirt but changed my mind.




It started to rain and Tim had this great suggestion to stay dry:-)
