"...To Grandmother's House We Go..."

We flew out of Cleveland early on December 22nd, so my parents were nice enough to put us up in the Marriott (near the airport) the night before, so we wouldn't have to get up at 3am to drive up to Cleveland for our 6am flight.
This was Gabriel's first time flying. Actually his first time was when we took him to Fiji, but he was only 6months old, so this was the first time that he would be able to remember. He was REALLY excited to stay the night in the hotel and swim and then ride on an airplane. It was quite a long journey...flying from Cleveland to Minneapolis (with a 2 1/2 hr layover) and then Minneapolis to Billings, but we made it safe and sound!

Excited to be at the hotel!

Posing with Mommy

Found scriptures at the hotel...he thought this was pretty neat.

Good Morning!

Bright-eyed at 4am...waiting for airport shuttle.

Looking for our gate.

Found it!

Watching the airplanes

So excited to be on the plane and ready to take off!

Finding ways to fill our 2hr layover in Minneapolis!

Having WAY too much fun!

Flight to Billings...all tuckered out!
