On Tuesday, Grandma McDonald flew through DFW on her way to Oregon for work, so we got to visit with her during a long layover. We stopped in Grapevine, had an early lunch/snack in Las Colinas and drove by the stadiums. Traffic is usually a nightmare, but it was so light that day that in hindsight we could have come home for a more relaxing visit. And this afternoon Nigel and I returned to the airport to have a quick lunch with Grandma McDonald as she headed back home to RVA. In addition to lots of hugs and her carry-on bag (which Nigel loved to pull behind him), Grandma McDonald also brought with her a Wii game for Nigel. It's perfect for his age because he simply moves the controller and doesn't have to push any buttons. We're still pretty limiting with screen time here at Chez McDonald, but this is definitely a cool thing.
Our family of three (one creative type, an economist and the cutest 4-year-old around) has made the journey from Virginia to Fort Worth, TX.
