Our time on the airplane!

Flying with three kids is never easy but we can do it.  We've got it down to a science....when we fly out of CT we ask if we can have my mom help us through security and to the gate which helps us out immensely because then we have three adults which can help during that first part with bathrooms, playing with kids, tears, and just being together before we leave.  Then we get on the plane and that seems to thankfully go okay.  However because we were delayed in CT we arrived later than expected in Detroit and had to RACE to catch our flight to Tokyo.  As we were getting off the airplane we heard them announce final boarding for Tokyo, we were in one terminal and our flight was in the other terminal.  So we ran as fast as we could....thankfully John had the boys in the double stroller and I had Little H and I was trying to run as fast as I could with her to make it to our next gate.  We got to our gate, I walked into the jet way and burst into tears so thankful that we made our flight and didn't have to stay over night in Detroit.  Made through security in Tokyo no problems and had no problems in Taipei just had to get our 9 suitcases, 5 backpacks, strollers, kids and us out to meet whoever was meeting us.  Thankfully we had wonderful friends pick us up and we were so thankful that we didn't have to worry about how we were going to get home.

 A little sleepy and teary eyed so glad we made our flight!
