We woke up on the last day in California, had breakfast at McDonalds, caught our shuttle and made it to the airport by 11:30. We made it through security with only me being subjected to further screaning, because Matt was holding Paxten, I was the one that had to do it. We had to wait in the terminal for abour an hour and then we boarded a very full plane. On the way there, there were empty seats and we were all able to sit by each other. this flight was very different. We were all spread out throughout the plane in 2 seats here, 2 seats there. There was not one empty seat on the plane. Matt sat with Parker and Paxten and Paige and I were together on the very last rows in the plane. The flight was a little bumpy on the way into Salt Lake because of the weather, but it was a beautiful sight to look out the plane window and see the blanket of clouds covering the earth. It was amazing. Paige slept the mojority of the flight and we landed in Salt Lake to 34 degree weather! We had left California and it was in the 70's so 34 seemed so cold!!! There had been a storm while we were gone and the car had about 5 inches of snow on it. By the time we got our bags from the baggae claim, got the car out of the parking lot, stopped for dinner and gas, we didn't arrive home until 9:30 that night. It was such a fun vacation and we were so glad we made the effort to take the kids while they were young. It was truly magical and the kids were so well behaved, I was amazed!! We were also lucky enough to go with Matt's Dad and Mom Kerry and Tara, and Quentin, Macee, Race, and Tosh. It was so fun to spend time with them and to get to know them better and to create these memories with them. The great news is that after spending a week side by side with each other we still love each other and want to spend more time together. Family Bonding!! We love it!!! The kids are constantly asking me when we are going back....we will be going back, I am just not sure when at this point!!
