Lots of Sessions



I went to a lot of classes today. I met a lot of new people throughout the day. There are about 1,500 MVPs present here at the conference from all over the world!

While everyone was learning at different classes I took some time to learn how to make a computer program like Daddy,

I missed you all today! I hope and pray that you are doing well. I hope tomorrow we can video conference and look and hear each-other on the computer. I love you all sooo much!

Swimming in Watermelon



We woke up to some nice healthy food this morning at hotel. There is more watermelon than I can eat in a week! I'm sure Daddy will eat the parts I can't finish.

Did you all sleep well last night? Daddy and I have been praying for you all!

We are about to get on a bus to the Microsoft campus where sessions will be held today. I hope you all have a great day!

Turtle Bed Paradise



We just got into our hotel room and WOW, I have the biggest bed EVER! I can spread out my legs and can't even touch the sides of the bed ;)

Daddy is going to enjoy sleeping on this bed. Dan has a bed next to me as well. He is our roommate.

Daddy and I pray that you all are doing well, that you have good dreams and not bad, and feel well and not sick!

Playing Chess with Dan



I challenged Dan to chess as we waited for our hotel room to be cleaned. I'm afraid I didn't do too well, but I am still learning ;) The game of chess is a little bit like checkers, but with a lot more rules. Someday I can teach you how to play.

We registered for the conference already. We have our badges that we wear around our necks and they even gave us a nice button up shirt that we can wear. They didn't have a super small turtle size shirt, but they did have one Daddy's size.





Limo Drive to the Hotel



We finally made it to Seattle, WA. Dan already landed by the time we got here.

We went to find a cab to the airport, but it turns out that a limo costs about the same price so we rode in style to the hotel!



As you can tell there is plenty of room here in the limo ;)

I hope you are doing well. Daddy really enjoyed talking to you all tonight. I look forward to having a video chat with you all soon.

Leaving a Little Late



The above picture is of the airplane we are going to ride in. Look how LONG that wing is!

Our flight was slightly delayed because they had to repair the bathroom, but we have finally boarded and all is good. We should land in Seattle, WA sometime after Enoch's nap.

The picture below is what it looks like inside the airplane. The flight is full. There are no empty seats. I guess lots of people want to get to Seattle ;)

Daddy ended up trading seats with a boy about your age, Abby, so he can sit next to his Mommy and then Daddy traded seats with a wan so she could sit next to her husband. I felt like I was playing musical chairs ;)



I hope you had a great time at church this morning. Daddy and I miss that we weren't able to join you.

Thanks for adding comments to my posts. I enjoy seeing them very much!

Freezing Cold in Minneapolis



We just landed in Minneapolis, MN and it is super cold here at a freezing 18 degrees Fahrenheit! Thankfully my nice hard turtle shell keeps my nice and warm, but Daddy is a little cold ;)

My ears felt a little strange going up high in the air, but they are all better now that we landed.

Daddy says we now have to find the other airplane that we are going to ride to Seattle, Washington. It is supposed to big a lot bigger airplane ;)

Mommy can show you on the map where we are. Daddy drew a line to trace our trip for you to follow at home.

It is going to be a much longer flight than the last one. I'll be in the air for a total of 3 Sesame Streets and then 1 episode of Super Why!

Lots of Leg Room



So, one of the the benefits of being an extremely small turtle is that you get tons of leg room on the airplane! I'm currently sitting in the cup holder of the food tray, but Daddy says I'll need to move once the plane is about to take off.

Speaking of Daddy, he has plenty of leg room as well. He is pretty small too ;)

This plane is much bigger than I had imagined! This first flight is supposed to last a little over 2 hours. I think I'll read or help Daddy on the computer.

Daddy and I miss you all very much!

Waiting for the Plane



I just arrived at the airport!

Daddy is taking good care of me. I'm waiting here by the window until our airplane arrives.

This will be my first trip in an airplane. I'm a little nervous because I'm so used to going very slow. I am a turtle after all.

I miss you all already! Daddy sends his love <3
