The Limo dropped us off at the airport where we met Kelly and Debbie. We got our luggage checked in and headed to security. Kelly and Debbie said there goodbyes. MAKE A WISH VOLUNTEERS ARE AWESOME!
We landed in Tulsa, the flight was good (no turbulance), got a rental car and headed to the hotel for dinner and swimming.
I went to Chad and Karlas hotel to start blogging and Mark called and said "The producers wanted to meet in the lobby in 15 minutes" I went back, got in the elevator to get back to the room to get everyone ready and TY walked in the elevator with me. I noticed who he was and he tried to be very descreat. I said to him "I'm going to meet you, soon" he gave me a funny look and I told him I was Callie Londons mom and he said "I've heard of her". I tried not to let my excitement show so I told him I would see him soon and I had to get off on the 3rd floor and he kept going on to the 7th. Too bad I wasn't on the same floor I could have had some more one on one time with TY.
The meeting with the producers was good. We met with the executive producer, Brady (who we had the telephone interview with last Friday) and met Steve the assistant producer. They did ask us our schedules because they may get put behind a day or two. There is supposed to be a ice storm that could be bad. Tomorrow they are doing the door knocking and we all get to go. They ask that we not drive and that they would caravan us where we needed to be. The safty of their staff and our family is of high importance.
I was worried we didn't bring enough to keep us warm so we headed to walmart to load up on coats, hats, gloves and an umberella. Now we are ready! We've got an early morning, we need to meet the Make A Wish in the lobby at 6:55 and then with the producers at 7:30AM. I promise to keep you updated.

  1. What an honor for her to be chosen for a wish of this magnitude. How proud her parents must be of a child who's wish was given to the compassion and needs of someone else. You don't see this or hear about it in today's world when most children think only of themselves. My hat is off to Callie and her team of makeover specialists, her family, and the Make A Wish Foundation. Miracles do happen!
