And speaking of holidays...I hope all my faithful readers had a rock star wonderful Thanksgiving! Henry and I ventured to sunny and dry Arizona to visit my family. Yes, that's right, there are no longer any Aldredges living in Kansas. My parents flew the mid-western coop only 3 short weeks after I did and are loving Sedona, AZ.
So how did we get to Arizona for Thanksgiving? A plane. And did Henry fly? Absolutely. If you remember a few weeks ago I went on a little rant about small, yappy dogs getting to fly in the cabin and my well-behaved Henry flying down below. Well, it actually went surprisingly well and Henry was an ANGEL. Not only did he ride the shuttle bus with me from the parking to the terminal, but he walked through the terminal, up the escalator (Will Ferrel in Elf- style: he was totally spread out over about 4 steps) and right to the check in. Flying with a large dog ranges from $100 to $200 each way and Henry's kennel weighed it at $150. However, they said if he grows an inch he will need a bigger kennel. Pretty sure he's already grown that much since last week.
It was great to see my family and Henry was a very happy grandchild.
Other news: I have a date Saturday night from my Boulder dating thing! I'm sure more will be posted on the results of said date next week so be watchin' for that.
After chatting with a bunch of Kansas friends, I am trying to work out a way to visit for New Years! I can't imagine a better way to celebrate 2010 than with all of you! So, if I can get a day or two off of work, I will make the long, boring journey down I-70 for a few glasses of champagne and some overdue time with my girls.
Love you all and have a wonderful week!

I love reading this. You always have such interesting things to say/interesting things going on. Dogs flying on planes? Didn't even know that was possible! UPDATES on the date for sure :) I am very excited to hear about that as well!
