We woke up at early and packed the car. We loaded sleeping boys in the car and drove away from our apartment at 4:37 am. We had a flight to catch in Chicago. Our car ride was full of excitement for the airport, flying on the airplane, seeing Grammy and Papa, and our upcoming summer visiting friends and realitives in upstate NY. It was also a somber ride because BK(Daddy) was not able to come with us. I am not sure the boys totally understood when we were leaving. I did. I am sad, but I know this is the best option.
Besides absence makes the heart grow fonder...right?
Well, I am not even sure it is possible for me or the boys to be fonder of BK, he is definitely the favorite in our house:)
But I will let you know.....
We soaked up our time with him at the airport and I was so jazzed when the Southwest lady made him our escort so he could take us the gate! It was like it was pre-2001!
We watched airplanes with the boys. We had extra hugs. It was awesome.

Watching planes with Daddy
Then the boys and I boarded the plane.
I was a little anxious, but they rose to the challenge.
They were rock stars.
I didn't even bring the car seats on.
They just buckled in like big boys.
It was so cool that we take up a whole row now:)
Quint loved the window seat
We discovered Russell loves sky mall.
Papa was waiting at security to greet us. I was so grateful!
Overall, an awesome trip, but we already miss Daddy.
