... and what a crazy day this ended up being! Fortunately, it went as well as it possibly could have, given all the unusual things going on. First of all, Tuesday morning it started snowing and schools immediately announced they were going to be closed for the day. Normally this is great news! But today, I was in Houston and Rhodri had to fly to Dublin, Rhiannon had just broken her hand and now both kids were off school. Thank goodness for friends!
Emma ended up looking after her two plus our two all day and most of the evening while Rhodri flew to Dublin for a meeting and then was also able to fly back. While nearly all other flights to the UK were canceled on this day, most flights in/out of Gatwick were fine because Gatwick airport had invested in snow removal equipment several years ago after a couple of snowy winters (2010-2011).
I was monitoring the situation via text with Rhodri and Emma, but it was awful to not be able to help!
Looks like they were able to have some fun though. And most importantly, it all went according to plan with Rhods picking up the kids from Emma and getting home around 10:30pm.
