The Easter Bunny Gives A Big Surprise!
As spring arrived in Oklahoma I realized how much I missed being in the south for spring. I longed for tulips, buttercups, beautiful green grass, and family. So very last minute Ryan offered to fly Ady and I back to Georgia for Easter. What a great surprise it was!! After driving 3 hours to Wichita, lugging her and all of our luggage through the airport, boarding a plane with a 2 year old and all that includes, a 75 mile an hour tailwind and we were in the deep south. A phone call later and Ady and I found ourselves outside of the Atlanta airport for an hour waiting on my brother. We had planned a 9 hour travel surprise and of course I-20 had a pile up and Josh was stuck in it. This is why I do not plan surprises. Even with the hiccup I was not bothered by it...I was home...humidity, pollen clouds and all! As we made our way back to Athens the surprise was a complete success. No one suspected a thing and I have never seen my Mama so excited. With screams of joy, a few happy tears, and absolute shock we were home for Easter, just where we needed to be. It was just as I had pictured it. Green grass, tulips, and buttercups, my Mama's garden never disappoints. So stealing a line from Dorothy, "There is no place like home."
