Trip Home

LIFE is so crazy right now with nursing school and being a single mom (we miss you Skip). I think about blogging just about everyday but never get around to it. I should be studying for a pharmacology test at the moment but that is just boring! So here we go! This post is all the pics from mine and the kids' trip home from Alaska clear back at the end of July. I know it's all old news, but this is the only way I get my pics of anything out of the files on my desktop!

We hitched a ride to Anchorage with Skips dad and step mom in the motorhome, stopped along the way to see some cool wood carvings, hung out at the airports in Anchorage and Seattle WAY to long, and the kids loved their first time on an airplane (except Thatcher; when he was 1!). The trip home was definately a lot shorter than the trip there!

In the motorhome. This is the way to travel!

Eating at the Chili's in the Anchorage airport after we somehow made it through securtiy. It was not an easy task by myself and four kids!

We had a 6 hour lay-over in Seattle. I stared out the window, fighting sleep, from midnight to 6am so that I could make sure the kids were alright. It was a long night to say the least!

The crew members on Alaska Airlines were great! On the first flight they gave us all the left over movie players and extra snacks. We were in the very back of the plane hanging out with the stewardesses and the kids were fabulous! The second flight Parker, Kennedy, and I all got to fly first class. Thatcher and Hailey were in the first row of business class so I could just turn around and see them but they were a little jealous!! They definately earned their wings!
