So on Tuesday I drove to Portland ( with both girls by myself) to pick up my sister from the airport..I was a little worried that she would get home sick but I still went... I was afraid too cause she has never flew on a airplane.. So my mom calls me while I was driving to go get her and she told me that she is really worried that I was not going to be there to pick her up... and that she had a really hard time getting on the plane... So im trying to hurry and get the airport A.S.AP!.. On the way over there, I was maybe like 5-10 minutes away... and it just starts to rain and I mean rain where I wanted my wipers so go faster cause I couldnt see!!! I was going like 20 miles an hour on the freeway... it wasnt only me driving like that it was everyone else too...I do admit I was a lil scared... so while im driving through the rain that was pouring down on me, my phone rings and it was my sister!!! AHHH!!! She told me to not hurry and dont rush cause she knew I had both girls! We get to the airport and it was sunny and blue sky which was really wired.. so I park and get the girls down and walked to the elevator and remind you I parked on the 5th floor, we get to the elevator and it was out of order!!! ughhhh!!! I was soooo mad ..so there I am hold the baby ( cause I didnt bring her stroller so I can make room for my sister luggage) and Im holding adina's hand cause she gets a lil scared walking down the steps... it was such a mission getting down those darn stairs!!
We took her to the waterfalls which also was the first time for us too.. It was so neat... She stood until saturday and I didnt want to take her back... It was soooo hard but I knew the day was going to come weather I like it or not.... You can tell that she was from outer town, she was taking picture of the water tower it reminded her of the movie "Whats eating Gilbert Grape".. she was getting souvenir's from our hardware/ pharmacy! She knew our lil tax thing where we dont have to pay for taxes.. so everywhere we went she wanted me to show them my i.d so we didnt have to pay for taxes.. even when we were in tri-cites at taco bell she wanted me to show them too...it was soo funny!!! Gotta love those people from L.A... Cant wait to see her again...
Are you crazy? You drove to portland by yourself with the 2 girls???? You amaze me. LOVE Multnomah Falls too - we try to stop there every time we go to portland. Glad you had a good time with your sis.
