Safe in Virginia


After an uneventful day full of flights, Kaden and I arrived safely in Virginia. We left Fairbanks around 1:30am on the 31st and arrived via Seattle into Washington, DC about 5pm. After a yummy dinner at Applebees (we don't have one, so it was quite a treat), we headed home. We made it home about 10pm. Kaden slept well for me last night, only it was on alaska time. So he slept from midnight-3am and then 5am-12pm. But I was just glad to get whatever sleep possible!! We had a nice visit with family friends, Lucy and Bernie, today. Then, my sisters and Grandma came over for pizza from The Hut. After a Walmart run, we are home now. I am tired and ready for bed. We'll see how the little guy sleeps tonight.

Jon enjoyed having today off (with it being the 1st). Our friends, Luke and Charity and their son Wrangall, are up visiting on their way home from a trip to PA. So he stayed up to pick them up from the airport and visit last night. Then he slept in today and is having dinner with his folks. Hopefully he doesn't starve while I'm gone. Haha.

More pictures to come. Oh and when I left AK, it was -42 degrees and it has been in the 30s since I arrived in VA. Can you believe a 60 degree difference in one day! Kinda weird huh.

More updates soon!
