What a trip.

We left yesterday morning, point A at 8:30am and reached our destination at 11pm. west coast time. Our trip was an adventure. Traveling with three kids alone I got the looks. Looks of pitty, irritation and looks of understanding. If I had a dollar for every person that told me "Wow, you have your hands full." I would have enough to hire a nanny.
Ok rewind a bit.The night before our trip Kaelyn burned her finger on the stove. So I had to pack all the burn treatment stuff. She had ran a fever two days before our trip so that was concerning to begin with. So we were on our way to the San Jose airport and she threw up. Now with the way the trip was starting out I was not looking forward to the rest. Poor baby.
The kids all had their own bags to carry with all their toys and activities. MOM was prepared. Everything went great despite the rude people at security. Don't they realize that with three kids one stroller and two bags for (myself) that it takes TIME. Ok so got through that, kids did great. Got onto the plane KJ started screaming. Yes I was the one with the screaming two year old. " I wanna go home". Honey the trip has barely started.
Got in the air and she was out. Boys did great. Next leg from Reno a little better. Austin slept on that one. By the third leg from Vegas we were good. On every flight we met new people, the kids made new friends. No one slept on the longest leg to Indy. I was just hoping that they would settle down but they kept busy and played with their new friends.
The trip was great a little bumpy at first but God knew how much I could handle. I am so proud of my kids. They did awesome.It was great to see my Dad and we are looking forward to a fun adventure here. I wish we were staying longer. I hope the kids will meet some friends here that the can play with and build those memories that I had of my summers in Indy.

I love the weather here. I will get pics up soon.
