The day finally came! The Tuesday before Thanksgiving we headed to the airport for a long 12 day vacation to visit with friends and family. The trip started out on a sad note as the kids didn't get a chance to say good-bye to Ryder. I rushed him off to a friend's house and the kids, especially Karis, were sad to leave him. They couldn't understand why we didn't bring him with us (like we did on our trip to Colorado).
The airport was crowded but the kids did great with rolling their own suitcases, exercising patience and having good attitudes.

The flight was pretty easy. We thought for sure the kids would take naps, but we were wrong. We arrived late in the night and it took awhile to get our suitcases and to get picked up -- the airport was packed!
We were planning to drive to California the next day but since most of us (including Karis), didn't get to bed past midnight, we decided to stay in Arizona for the day. That allowed us a day to relax and unwind and visit with Nana, Aunt Stephanie and Aunt B.
We also got to go out to dinner to celebrate Aunt Stephanie's birthday!
