Abby's first flight and first trip to Kansas

Our flight to Kansas was December 23rd.  Even though our flight was a 8:00, we got to the airport extra early since it was Christmas and we heard the lines could be pretty bad.  We woke the kids at 4:30 and by the time we boarded the plane, Abby was ready for a nap and slept over half the flight to Minneapolis.
We found our next gate and then grabbed a little lunch.  Abby was again ready for a nap when we boarded and slept about half the flight again and Ethan joined her this time.  We got to KC, got our luggage and rental car.  Wade's parent meet us with the car seats they have for us to put in our rental car and after installing both seats, we headed to Lawrence in time to have dinner with some friends.  We drove to Plainville the next day to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with my family (and a quick visit from Santa and the Mrs).

Then back to Lawrence to have Christmas with Wade's family.  We stayed in Lawrence till Jan 1st trying to see as many of our friends as we could while in town. 




On the 1st, we went back to Plainville to spend some time with my family. 



On the 4th we went back to Lawrence and then flew out early the 6th.  Both kids slept most of the flight to Salt Lake City.  Abby wasn't feeling great so she slept part of our layover in Salt Lake and part of the flight to Calgary.  It was snowing in Calgary so we were relieved there wasn't any problems and was happy to make it home and get to sleep in our own beds.  We had so much fun being back in Kansas and seeing everyone but the next day while running Ethan to school and getting grocery, I saw our wonderful view here in Calgary and couldn't help but think "We aren't in Kansas anymore".
