The Grimes Family: May 2010

Vacation!!

We went out the Phoenix to see the Bernals! This was Kenzie 2nd time on a plane but I'm pretty sure she didn't remember the first time. Our flight went from Detroit to Chicago then onto Phoenix! Kenzie was alright on the plane until we took off! Then she said "where did the road go?" She was a little scared but did alright

Hannah fell asleep almost right away!

From Chicago to Phoenix Hannah did pretty good but started to get antsy, luckily the plane wasn't full so we were able to take her to the back and let her roll around a little then she fell asleep!

Kenzie did much better on this flight she said "I'm happy on this plane!" She had fun playing and also took a little nap with Daddy!

We arrived in Phoenix at 7:30 local time (10:30 our time), by the time we got our car and got to the hotel we were all beat so we went to bed to get ready to see the Bernals the next day!
