Trip to Rosy Town

Oh the Joy's of standby...Long story short, after a miserable 6 hours in an airport, not getting on four different flights to SLC, Steve called it a day and was ready to go home. We were trying to visit some family and take the boys out to stay for a couple of weeks and I just couldn't let them down! They were crying and praying all day to get on a flight. They were DYING to go visit grandparents and cousins. The odds were not in our favor and it looked impossible. I told him I would at least try for the rest of the day just for the boys benefit. He took Kaia and Mettea home, pretty sure it was going to be a waste of our time. Well the next flight only had 7 seats avail. and 70 standby. We were number 30, 31, and 32 on the list but by some miracle we made it! Steve was in shock when I called him from inside the plane and I think we were both pretty bummed that they didn't go with us but such is life! I think he had a great weekend with the girls. (Ask him what he used for gravy on his mashed potatoes while I was gone. When he told me, I laughed so hard I fell down!)

We got to visit some Allen and Aland cousins. It's pretty nice when they they live in the same town! These first are at Steve's brother's house.
These two pictures are of Cousins Liam and Lizzie. They have become quite the buddies!

The inseperable duo of Luke and Tathan!

It was so good to see Wade, Kati and the kids. This is the only picture Kati would let me take of her! She's so funny.

On my flight home I sat next to a 66 year old lady named Melody who had me laughing so hard I was crying and everyone kept giving me weird looks. We had a such a good time and it was one of the funniest flights I've ever been on. There are sure some characters in this world
