Thursday morning, at 4:45am, our sweet friend Nick picked us up to go to the airport. We were on our way to our first family vacation. We were so excited and nervous at the same time. We had no idea what Tyler was going to do on an airplane, especially at 6:00 in the morning. We got to the airport, checked in, went through security, RAN to the terminal and boarded the airplane. We were very lucky to have a non-full flight and we got to sit in the front row, where there is a little extra room. Tyler immediately took a bottle on the take-off, to help his ears pop, and fell asleep in my lap. Once he woke up he was so interested in everything around him. He loved looking out the window. He had a blast walking on the floor in front of our seats. And he adored all the attention he got from the other passengers and the flight attendant. He is such a good flyer and we got tons of compliments on how well-behaved he was. We were such proud parents!!!
Once we got to the airport we had a long wait ahead of us. Uncle Topher, Aunt Leya and Baby Drew were meeting us at the airport so we could all share a rental car. We landed at 7:30am, but they did not arrive until 11:00am. Once again, Tyler was awesome! He was perfectly content playing on the luggage thingy and crawling around all over the floor. Who knew luggage could be so entertaining.
Once Topher, Leya and Drew arrived we hugged, bundled the kids up and headed to the car rental place. And oh yeah baby....we got a mini van. Cruisin' in the mini van...what's cooler than that? We finally made it to Estes Park, Colorado and checked into our little cabin. It was so cute and what an amazing view!
Lamar and Topher played a little game of "Tyler Toss" and Leya and I headed out for a "girls" dinner with the bride and friends. What a fun first day!
