We Made it to GA!

Well I sit here in Ryan's parents house all alone and I'm lost as to what to do so I thought I would post an update on our trip so far.

Friday night at 2:00 in the morning the phone rings and it's American telling us our flight will be delayed enough to cause us to miss our connection. So they have put us on the next flight simply leaving us a shorter connection. When planning my trips with the kids, I like to plan plenty of time at my conncetion but okay at least they've found a spot for us and we can sleep a little bit longer. So we wake up at 5:00 and get on the road. WE get to the parking lot we've reserved and there are no spots in the self park. Well we park ourselves in a valet spot and give them our keys and tell them where we are and we are on our way. Don't know if they appreciated that but hey we have a plane to catch and aren't going to waste time finding another lot. With some maneuvering we get ourselves and our plethora of belongings on the shuttle and get to the airport. Can I tell you that the American terminal is so unorganized and makes things ten times harder. It could be so much easier. Very stressfull but such a relief when our bags are taken and we just have the kids to keep up with. All in all the kids were great. I was a bit worried because Cassie had a fever and bad cough the day before and woke up with a bit of one but really did well overall. Campbell was wired and was so excited about flying. In fact, the day before he woke up and had a fit because we weren't leaving that day. His 3 year old mind couldn't process why we had to wait for the next day and couldn't go then. They both did great on the flights. Cassie slept a good bit and Campbell watched Peter Pan and Cars and talked constantly about everything and asked the never-ending question, "Why?" We were all so exhausted once we finally got ourselves to Rome. The kids have been having a great time with Grandma and PaPa Gaston.

Sunday morning we all slept in and then got ourselves dressed and off. We made a stop at a family friends the Clonts and visited for a bit. Their grandchild, Jebb(3.5) , was there and he and Campbell had fun together. Their property was so beautiful with all the fruit trees and creek running behind it. Campbell loved pulling the plums off the tree and eating them. After that we all loaded back up and drove to the Gaston's land in Cave Spring, GA. Here Campbell had a blast. He fished with his PaPa, rode the 4-wheeler with PaPa and Uncle Colt and rode PaPa's tractor with him. Campbell caught so many fish and when he woke up this morning asked to go fishing again. Daddy and Uncle Colt packed up and went fishing on the creek behind the Clont's house and Grandma and PaPa loaded up the kids and are heading back to the land to fish with Campbell again. I stayed behind and here I sit deciding what I am going to do with my afternoon. Not used to being all alone for this period of time. Tonight we will go to a Rome Braves game. I believe thats a minor league team? I will try to post some pics another time as we have a few and will post more updates about our trip later.
