Last Fall, Caroline mentioned that she would LOVE for her and Andy to go to the WWE Royal Rumble in Indianapolis, Indiana. We didn't think she was serious so we didn't put much stock in it. When we started writing our Christmas lists, she said the only thing she wanted was for and Andy to go to the Royal Rumble. At that point, we realized this was really something she wanted to do and something that we needed to make happen. So we booked the hotel and airfare and bought the tickets. Then began the countdown...they were so excited. I was a little teary when I dropped them off. I was leaving half of my heart at the airport ready to board a plane.
Thankfully Caroline loved flying, said it might be her new hobby. They made all their boarding times and made it safely to the hotel.
Once on the ground in Indianapolis, they got checked into their hotel, changed into warmer clothes and walked downtown to dinner. They found a yummy mom and pop Italian restaurant and enjoyed a delicious dinner.
Saturday morning, they got up early and got breakfast at Panera. Caroline wanted to do some shopping downtown but most of the stores didn't open until 11:00. So she managed to find a few new tops, which she was really happy about.
Time for the big event...with 65,000 of their favorite friends, fans and wrestling family!
Charlotte Flair won the ladies event and Cody Rhodes won the mens event. Both made them very happy.
They left the hotel this morning at 5:30 to head to the airport for an early morning departure. I asked Caroline if flying was still her favorite hobby and she said "let me get breakfast before I answer." I was SO SO SO thankful to see their plane land and she them step off!!
Mags made a welcome home sign for them and our friend Mrs. Lori who was also on their flight!
We were so thankful for them to go but so thankful to see them come home. Tonight as I said goodnight to everyone, I was SO grateful to have us all under one roof again!
