A couple weeks ago the boys and I packed up and went for a drive. A very long drive. It started at 6:30AM and ended at 10:30PM. That's right folks, 16 hours in the car with an almost 2 year old and an 8 month old. Thanks to Meann, as Sebastien says, it was a great drive. We left Cheyenne, drove to the Denver airport, picked up Aunt Meann, had breakfast with Uncle Jeff then continued the drive to AZ! Thanks to the dvd player, Sebastien watched many Thomas the Train movies, baby einstein and other disney movies. He loved it! We owe a big "THANK YOU" to Meann, for being so willing to make the drive with us. She entertained Manti, fed him and sang his favorite song when he got cranky. I think during the whole drive Manti only had about 5 minutes of maddness. I love my boys, they are such great travelers!
We had such a great time in AZ. Sebastien loved playing outside. I think the only time I saw him was when it was time to eat and naps/bedtime. Even then I had to drag him in the house. It was such a nice change of weather and gave us a glimpse of what our summer in Cheyenne will be like. We got to do many things this trip. We had an Egnew Family Reunion, went to Chuck e Cheese, the zoo, many lunch/dinner dates with family, a pinata, visits with friends and much more.
Troy joined us after a week and a half and had quite the adventure getting there. After a down day at work (due to weather) he headed to Denver mid morning for his 7o'clock flight. About 30 minutes after leaving town, the freeway shut down due to a 40 car pile up caused by the yucky weather. Thank goodness he missed that mess! As Troy headed to Denver he called Southwest to find out about flights and they told him all flights up until 6:00 had been cancelled. He should check back with them throughout the day regarding the evening flights. An hour later I get the call from Troy, ALL FLIGHTS FOR THE DAY ARE CANCELLED! The earliest he would be able to get on another flight was Saturday mid morning (two days later). I was so sad! After many phone calls to airlines, research online and $188.00 later, he was able to catch a last minute flight on a different airline. He had a rocky flight but made it safely. The boys and I were so happy to have daddy with us!
We had such a wonderful trip and can't wait to see family and friends again soon!
