Long Day of Travel

Well friends, we are here!  It has been a very long day so I will blog briefly tonight but wanted to let everyone know that we made it and that I will be able to blog from here!  All considering, we really had a relatively smooth day of traveling.  The Bradleys joined us in KC Friday night so that we could all fly out together today.  We stopped for lunch at Chick-Fil-A on the way up to the airport and got there in plenty of time to check our many bags and board the plane.  Mom, Dad and Lisa were already on the plane and had saved us seats - how nice!  Lucy was so excited to fly on the plane and when we took off she said very loudly "YES!  I CAN SEE EVERYTHING FROM UP HERE!"  It was truly hilarious and we laughed so hard.  We landed safely in Tampa but storms were right behind us and the ramp for the baggage closed.  We had to wait nearly an hour and half for the carousel to begin but all the kids were very well-behaved!  Here we are waiting patiently:

We had SO MUCH luggage - about 20 bags total!

Lu is such a big girl now!

We made it! :) Looking forward to our week!
