And we're off!

Day 1: Airplane leaves at 6am. apparently this does not mean that we need to wake up at 6am. This means we need to wake up at 3am. Oops! The kids do great though and don't act tired at ALL! They jump out of bed and get dressed. Even Sloane. Nobody sleeps on the way to the airport. The airplane is small one of those with 2 seats on either side (weird for a flight between 2 major airports) I sit with Sloane and she does okay but gets tired after awhile and wants to go home. She falls asleep about an hour into the flight.
When we get to the airport we meet Malinda. She is a long lost cousin that I was supposed to meet 25 years ago and never did. She is a flight attendant- and a very interesting girl. She is coming to Idaho also. We give her a ride.
We go down to get our luggage and guess what? Jim's bag is lost. Didn't this happen LAST year???? Ugh? Okay, we find out it is coming on the next flight so no big deal, we wait and pick it up. Then we are off!
We make it to Shelley Idaho where there is some sort of luncheon following a funeral for my dads uncle. I get to see a bunch of people that I haven't seen in a long long time. Then it's off to Idaho Falls.
Lana and Gary let us borrow their trailer so we put it in my brother's back yard. This makes it SO much easier when there are 5 of us!!! Originally we were supposed to be staying in the trailer but at my grandma's but then she went and broke her shoulder and knee so she was in the hospital for our whole visit :(
