5. My dad meeting us at the gate at the IAH.
Since my dad works for Continental, he can meet us at the gate. I miss the days of family and friends waiting for their loved ones when they step off the plane. I'm fortunate that my dad still can. After 6 longs months of not seeing family, we were reunited. That is the longest span we have gone without seeing our family. I shouldn't complain, there are many others that have to wait a lot longer to be reunited with their family.
4. Meeting my brother for the first time.
Since Kris has been home, it seems like something always came up and anytime my parents tried to come out to California for a visit, it didn't work out. He was in the driveway waiting for us when we pulled in the driveway Monday evening. The kids knew exactly who he was, thanks to Skype and the pictures I have at the house.
3. My niece, Faith.
Wednesday evening, we went over to my in-laws to visit. Mason and Taylor had a great time visiting and playing with their cousin. Faith is exactly two weeks younger than Mason. She was a little shy at first, but soon warmed up and gave me lots of hugs and kisses. Her laugh is contagious and I can't help but smile every time she says my name. It's hilarious.
2. Being in Texas.
Seriously, the best state. Surely, I'm not biased.
1. Taylor's Graduation.
My cousin Taylor (who Taylor Reese is named after) is graduating from Texas A&M University this weekend. After 5 long years, she is graduating with her Masters. She was in a program where she completed her Bachelor's and Masters in Business Finance in 5 years. All of her hard work has paid off. I can't wait to celebrate this huge accomplishment with her. Whoop!
