Gems from the our recent airplane ride

We flew home from Toronto yesterday after enjoying a family-filled weekend.  Belle wanted to meet the pilots of our flight home so we stopped in the cockpit on our way to our seats.  The captain asked Belle who she was visiting in Canada and Belle said that she was seeing cousins.  The captain asked Belle how many cousins she has in Toronto, and Belle said, "A lot."
Cute, and, yes, Belle certainly has a lot of cousins.

Later during the flight, when the flight attendant offered Belle a beverage, Belle said:  "Could I have apple juice, please?"  
Flight attendant: Would you like ice?
Belle: No, thanks.
Flight attendant: Would you like a cookie?
Belle: Yes, please!

The flight attendant told Craig and me how refreshing it is to hear a small child use such lovely manners.  She said she doesn't hear that often. I was so proud of Belle.

Emily was also well-behaved on the plane ride, and even fell asleep during landing and remained asleep through our claiming our luggage.

We're glad to be home and on the ground now.
