Lubbock

In the beginning of December we found ourselves taking a quick mid week trip to Lubbock, TX for a job interview.  We persuaded some sweet friends to come stay at our house our and take on the role of Ma & Pa to our three monkeys.  I tried not to take in personal when our kids screamed with excitement at the idea!  So for the first time in our marriage Ben and I took off all by ourselves.  Going through the airport and plane ride was so peaceful and relaxing.  We enjoyed the "wining & dining" but also felt VERY over whelmed with all the attention, questions, and roller coaster of emotions that come with a job interview.  When we returned home the kids were WELL taken care of and we were grateful for the opportunity to go.

 The hotel we stayed in had a big ginger bread house down in the lobby.  And while we were gone our kids were spoiled in some ginger bread house making of their own. Love those little faces!
