We flew from SFO to SLC on Wednesday, slept over at my parents house one more night, & then left early early on Thursday morning to head home to Germany. Saying good-bye to Cadence just about did me in. It was SO hard. I love that girl with every fiber of my being. I'm SO excited for her adventures at BYU & can't wait to see what she'll accomplish. Our family will miss her, but she's going to do great things.
One thing that made the flight home awesome was our amazing pilot from SLC to Chicago. We realized half way through our family reunion that Talon was the scheduled pilot for our flight to Chicago. It was GREAT. Our flight was delayed 40 minutes, but our awesome pilot flew extra fast to make sure we made our connection to Germany.
Talon let the kids see the cockpit of the plane while we waited to take off. It was SUPER fun.
I love these two brothers. Such a neat experience.
Because of our flight delay, we almost missed our flight from Chicago to Germany. They were announcing our names over the loud speaker at the airport threatening to close the gate. We literally sprinted over a mile through the Chicago airport to make it to our gate. It was like the scene in Home Alone. At the time it wasn't funny, but now that it's over, we must have looked hilarious.
We made it safe & sound & made it home to Germany.
It was a wonderful vacation & the perfect end of summer.
