Our morning started at 3:00 am as we loaded up and headed out the door to the airport.
When we opened the garage door, the ground was covered in 4 inches of snow. A surprise snow storm was hitting, and it did not look like it was going to stop anytime soon. As we made our way to the airport, the roads were horrible and car wrecks were everywhere. We finially made it to the airport just in the nick of time.
We thought for sure we would never make it out of Salt Lake. Once on the plane, we waited 30 min. to de-ice the plane. Then another 30 min. to clear the snow from the runway. This went back and forth for 4 1/2 hours. Meanwhile the snow kept coming down and we were all stuck on the plane! Luckily the kids both fell asleep.
Our 4 hour layover in LA turned into o minites. The plane leaving to Hawaii said that they would hold the plane for 5 minites. The airport also provided carts to transport people faster. While Corey waited for the stroller, I took the first cart with the two kids to try and stall the plane. Just as I was getting off the cart, another cart was coming, there was no Corey. A few paces behind the cart was Corey running pushing the stroller. He ran a mile behind the cart, pushing the stroller trying to make the connector!
Luckliy we made our flight. Once the plane was in the air and things were settled, Corey and I realized that none of us have had anthing to eat all morning. Everyone was starved! The kids were sooo good therough all of it all. There was no fussing or winning. Peyton watched movies and played with toys.
Annisten played and watched everything around her. And she napped!
Papa Mike and Nana T meet us in the Hawaii airport. For 30 min. Peyton asked "Where's papa? Where's nana?" until we found them. When all was said and done... everyone survived the flights and the long waits. Oh and we even had our luggage!
