Travel day...Mpls->Atlanta->Sarasota!!

Out during takeoff on the first flight! I was kind of surprised. Only slept for 20 min. and that was the only nap of the day!! The kids were pretty good after a long day of travel. Austin got a little antsy on the second flight and was getting on Craig's nerves so we swapped spots which seemed to help. Each of us had one kid and were across the aisle from one another. Austin made lots of friends throughout the day with his hat and sunglasses on the entire time! At the hotdog stand in the Atlanta airport all the ladies were giving him lots of attention and he was loving it with his big smile..one said "I think he is going to be the class clown!"

I was thankful to see our luggage at the end of our flights! We got our car rental and stepped out into the Florida sun! I love how it smells when you get off the plane here...kind of that warm, humid, salty smell. We stopped at walmart and headed to the hotel for pizza. Craig did another great job of finding a great hotel. There is a separate den where the kids are sleeping (although the kids took a long time to fall asleep in there!) a living area, and separate bedroom for Craig and I. We are off to the Beach and Baseball game tomorrow!

I love this picture!

Fun little play area by our gate at HHH. Good to play around because we got to the airport plenty early. We took a shuttle from our hotel. Check in went really fast.

My little troopers..Austin insisted on dragging this bag all around by himself (should have brought the one with wheels!) He tried to carry it on his back sometimes and could hardly walk straight because it was heavier then he was! It took us a long time to walk places but he made it!
