Our summer vacation to Idaho started on Friday, June 13Th and it was a "Freaky Friday!" I'll Skip all the boring stuff and give the cliff notes of the flight.
First, I forgot my drivers license in the car after
Sherstine dropped is off at 5 am! She did not have her phone on her, so we were working on a time crunch. We called and awoke her husband Wayne with strict instructions on
Sherstine's speedy return to the airport. She is such a great friend, and broke several traffic laws--and arrived with my license only 2 minutes before the "checked bag deadline!!"
The second disaster started on the first leg of our flight. Both kiddos had wardrobe malfunctions. In our hast to make our 7am flight we forgot to change Cohen's diaper (Yes, he is still in diapers--my head is hanging in shame. I digress...) and his pants were soaked through. About the same time we made this discovery Eli had a rumble down under and had a "blow out"--err
up--whatever! I forgot to plan for the worst and did not have any extra clothes. So we walked off the plane with two kids in only diapers. Can you say, "Ghetto Fabulous!!"
I ran
frantically around the
DFW airport trying to find a
onesie and pants for Cohen. No such luck on pants for the Co-
daddy, and he wore dried "pee pee pants!" Poor Cohen. Eli did not have pants either, but I did find a 12 month t-shirt for his top.
The third problem was our time crunch. After arriving in Utah, we needed to hurry to Idaho in time to make the endowment session and for Cody's fiance, Brittany. We did our best and arrived only 15 minutes before the session started. With little time to plan a babysitter only Marshall was able to attend. Oh well, at least he made it!
