Day Thirteen: Homeward Bound

We had to wake up at what was 1:15am California time. We tried to carry the kids to the van without waking them. We then drove 1 1/2 hours to Raleigh. At the airport we had donuts and waited for the plane. After we got on the flight at what was 4:50AM Cali-tme we proceeded to drug our kids with Nyquil. (Only a half-dose) and it worked magically. The kids knocked off for 2-3 1/2 hours. We had a pretty instant connection in Salt Lake City. I was glad not to have to spend more time in the airport. We had a quite ride home. Ethan & Sophie slept again. It was soooo good to see our Dawson Van and Grandpa at LAX. We were so glad to get HOME. We were bombarded by cousins and dogs. It was good to hang out and spend the afternoon with our new house guests.

All in all it was an amazing trip and came at THE perfect time. It was so good to rest...

...now life starts all over again.
