Good Travel

This is just a quick update. Our plane didn't leave until 6:05pm yesterday, so we had plenty of time to do last minute things and pack. The boys even got to play on the PS3. We had a late lunch from Chipotle before heading to the airport early. The local news said to allow for a good two hours prior to departure. As it turned out, we didn't need anywhere near that, so we waited for a long time.

This is a picture of us on the plane. Eric was in a good mood. He played in the iPad for most of the time. Natalie was reading The Hunger Games. The big boys listened to music and played on their iDevices. The trip was mostly turbulence-free, which I loved, of course.

The trip to the rental car place was the only low point. The bus driver usually helps with the luggage and/or at least helps Eric up and down the stairs since the rest of us have our hands full with luggage. This one just watched. Patrick also went through two vans before getting one that was acceptable. At least the trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house went well. Eric even slept in the car and he was in a good mood for his grandparents. Grandma fed us pizza then everyone got ready for bed. The little ones didn't get in bed until 11pm.

Today is about getting ready for skiing, trying to find stuff that fits. I'll try to update tonight or tomorrow.
