Day 1: Airports

---

Wally and Patrick picked me up at 4:15am! We met Candy and Brittany at OHare Airport and experienced quite a long line to load our luggage and check-in. We barely made it through security - and HAD to get our coffee....we were all dragging! Oh and there was a Starbucks right there! Perfect! Oh the coffee tasted so good....Gumby thought so too! 😊
After sitting at our gate for about 20 minutes, Patrick noticed that the listing changed from Houston to Cleveland. Oh no! Did we miss our flight?! Impossible...we've been there the whole time! (Gumby....Gumby....Gumby...we're flexible, right?)
The friendly flight lady rescheduled us onto the next flight to Houston.

Gumby gettin his Starbucks!
We had to get our Starbucks....it was an early morning starting off at 4:15am being picked up to head to OHare Airport! Long line to check in all our luggage and security was even longer!

We had to put Gumby away to get on the plane....after we missed the first flight!!! Patrick saw that the gate changed from Houston to Cleveland after about 20 minutes....we laughed it off. This was the perfect time for us to practice being flexible....like Gumby! :)

The fountain and flowers were nice, but the pool was a bit green....wouldn't recommend swimming in it!
