arizona, get ready!

in july my brother called up and asked if finn and i wanted to go to the grand canyon in september with him and my mom... my reaction: "well, YEAH!"
so tomorrow morning, we will leave the house at 6AM to catch our flight.
we are scheduled to do the following during our mini vaca.

- two hour jeep ride through the sedona red rock
- touring a HUGE meteor crater
- going through the grand canyon caverns and surrounding area
- visiting the grand canyon and maybe even the indian reservation which is located near the bottom of the canyon!

other than that, i hope to go swimming at the hotel pool and eat some good food.

this will be the longest flight that finn has ever been on (3.5 hours!!) and probably his last free flight, as they start charging once kids turn two. so here's hoping finn doesn't drive all of the flyers crazy.

we will be back monday night, and will get some pictures and narrative posted next tuesday! until then....

HAHA, I COULDN'T STAY AWAY! IT'S 4:35am. I JUST RECEIVED A CALL THAT OUR FLIGHT WAS CANCELLED OUT OF O TO CHICAGO (WHERE I WAS SUPPOSED TO MEET UP WITH MY FAM!!). SO NOW, INSTEAD, WE FLY TO DALLAS AND THEN PHOENIX... WHICH MEANS SHORTER FLIGHTS, BUT WITHOUT ANY FAMILY TO HELP WITH CRAZY CHILD! FINN IS RACKING UP THE TOTAL OF AIRPORTS HE HAS BEEN IN, IN HIS SHORT LIFE!


-OMAHA
-O'HARE
-NASHVILLE
-KNOXVILLE
-ST. LOUIS
AND NOW
-PHOENIX
-DALLAS!

ANYWAY, THOUGHT I'D UPDATE YOU, SEEMS LIKE AIRPLANE TRIPS NEVER GO THE WAY THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO IN MY FAMILY! AAARRRGGGHHH!

bring suckers for him to suck on so his ears don't hurt! Tanner did fine on our flight when he was 18 months...we just brought stuff for him to do! Have fun can't wait to hear about it when you get back.
