Vacation - The Return

Saturday morning we woke up, got ready, and headed to the dining room for our yummy hot breakfast. We loaded up the van and headed to the car rental place to return the van. By the time we got everything situated and got on the shuttle, we only had 45 minutes before our plane took off. I started freaking out thinking that there was NO way we would make our flight, especially since we didn't have Rachael so we had a lot for the 2 of us to carry. We got to the airport, and waited in line to check our 1 bag. Too bad it was over the weight limit by 14 pounds. Oops. So there we were in the middle of the airport opening all our bags rearranging stuff while Brayden and Brooklyn were running around wild. We finally got it down to 4 pounds over and the nice lady let it pass. Going through security was NOT easy, but we made it through. We rushed and rushed to our gate and got there just in time to walk onto it before they shut the door. Relief. We made it. Of course we sat on the runway for 30 minutes before take off. Go figure. The flight went well...Brynlee slept for half of it while the other kids watched shows and played games. What a week!!! The trip was SO stressful that it took me 2 days to release the stress and remember how much fun it was because all I could remember was the stress. The kids loved it and still talk about it to everyone. Hopefully we can go back soon!!
