My mom was kind enough to fly to Phoenix just to get back on the same exact air plane to help my fly with 2 kids. THANK GOODNESS. We counted once and Alexa had been on over 40 airplanes. We get comments left and right about what a great flyer she is. NOT THIS TIME. She totally flipped out, it was nuts. Luckily my mom was there to hold Gavin while I consoled her for an hour and forty min. AHHHHHH! It was terrible.
We stayed at my mom's until Greg got here. We had a fun time swimming and Alexa had a GREAT time playing with her cousins, aunts, uncles, Grandma Judy and Grandpa Fred. Everyone fought over who would get to hold Gavin. He will never know what it means to be set down.
Thursday the 7th was Greg's cousin Joe's wedding Dinner and the 8th was the Wedding/Reception. On Saturday Greg's mom cooked (I want to say that I helped but I really didn't do much) all day for Gavin's blessing on Sunday. She had hosted the wedding dinner and catered the wedding the night before. She is a kind woman to take this all on. If she wasn't such a great cook she wouldn't have to do all of this. :)
Gavin's blessing was on Sunday. Monday we just relaxed while Greg went fly fishing with his uncle Lowell & Michael. Today I got my hair done while the same trio played golf in Payson. And tonight we had Chazen family pictures! We come home Saturday and are NOT excited for the flight... we'll let you know how it goes.

I totally can relate to your plane experience. You were so lucky to have your mom with you. I've flown with three kids - by myself - from PA to UT...a five hour flight!!! It was CRAZY!!! I had hair going everywhere and looked like a tired, insane mother by the end of that flight! And then when I arrived at the S.L.C. airport I ran into Jake Schipaanboord from High School. I hadn't seen him in years! That was quite embarrassing! Another time I flew with Abby (my oldest) by myself on a crowded flight! She had a blow-out all over me and also was screaming to nurse but REFUSED to be covered while I nursed her. I was wrestling with her the whole time! It was so embarrassing, but what makes this story even more embarrassing was that the couple that sat next to me were the parents of Alexis Kallas's best friend! I think her name is Brandy Martinez. Yah! I'm sure they went home with a bunch of stories about me. ha ha ha
Payton was so bad coming home from Oregon in January....but fine on the way there....they are so up and down, so I bet she'll be better this time!
