I've had quite a whirl-wind of 2 weeks. I was determined to make "1 last trip" before the baby arrived, so my parents got me and the kids buddy passes to fly to georgia for a week. (NOTE: DO NOT FLY ON BUDDY PASSES IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN!!) Anyway.... we got to atlanta great and had so much fun. We swam almost every day, visited friends and cousins, went boating (which again.....do not do if you are 35 weeks pregnant!! ouch.....), and had a lot of fun with nanny and poppy. The kids were not ready to come back...and apparently, the airplanes didn't want us either.
We tried to leave thursday..couldn't get on a flight. Tried again on Friday, arriving at the airport at 8 :30 a.m. Tried again......and all the flights were full ,so went back to the house. Saturday...we go back. Brett was able to come with us (since he works for delta and can go through security), and thank goodness he did. We were there all day again trying to get on a flight. By 5:00, we were exausted and the kids had had enough. The flights to SlC didn't look good, so we finally just went to Portland hoping to get to SLC easier from there. NOPE! We spent 2 days there, and finally just had to buy tickets to come home. WHEW!!!! Very tireing. At different points of the days, Mya had thrown HUGE tandrums, i've burst into tears in front of everyone, and dealing with Nash only wanting to go into the boys restroom and not with me and Mya.
Overall, it was GREAT trip...but I am so thankful to be home.
While in Portland, we stayed with Melissa. Nash and Mya loved seeing their cousins again. Here they are at the park, playing ring-around-the-rosie.
Cousins: Mya, Brooklyn, Nash, Otto and Lily.
Mya loved to walk their dog Stretch around the park
Our last night in Atlanta, I took Nash night swimming. He thought it was the coolest thing ever!
yes.....nash is beginning to look like a little mexican again....we get asked all the time "if we have a different culture in us."

What a horrible airport experience! After England, I vow to not fly again for a very long time!!! Glad you finally got home! :) (never thought i'd say that....)
Lol about Nash's Mexican heritage! And holy cow I haven't seen Brooklyn since she was a little toddler! Amen about the whole flying on buddy passes with kids...it's always a horrible experience! Glad y'all finally made it back!
