We really got hit hard during our Christmas break. The travel days were rough. We finally arrived in Detroit 12 hours late and without our luggage...for 3 days. Here are pictures of the kids sleeping in the Chicago airport:
We have a ton of family in Michigan and try to split our time between them. It's not an easy job but the kids love each and every stop along the way:
The Klier Christmas:
On the Polar Express:In the snow:
The Reynolds Christmas:Playing in the snow:Visiting the Chicago family:We also had the Mitchell Christmas.
The kids got to play in the snow at their house too...the weather had started warming up a bit which meant that the snow was perfect for snowmen! Avery is on a Shrek kick so August, Anna and Paul all made a Shrek snowman!!
We also etched out a night to get together with some old friends:
Then we loaded our loot up and began our long journey home:
Our flight to Chicago went without a hitch...but our flight to Detroit was delayed not once...but twice. Thankfully our ride home from the airport was very flexible and we got home safe and sound.
The kids went back to school today...and there was snow on the ground!! August just got home and said that he had a really good day.

wow, i'm tired from just reading about ALL that traveling around. sounds like a great visit, though, to catch up with all that family. i can't believe how grown up the kids are getting.
snow boots and presents at each stop, whew! glad you're home, feels good to just sit in the quiet doesn't it?
where did you go for the polar express?! we found one, i forget where, but it's pretty expensive, so i think we are gonna plan on going next year.
