Last Christmas when we flew to Spokane for the holidays we had a bit of a travel snafu and ended up getting stuck in Denver with snow, flying at 2am to Seattle and driving across the Snoqualmie Pass in a rental van with 8 other strangers to get us to Spokane all with a 13 month old! After that experience, we decided that we wouldn't fly through Denver again in the winter. So, we booked our flights through Phoenix and called it good. However, when we showed up at the airport at 5 am on December 27th we were informed that our flight to Phoenix had been canceled due to weather! An ice storm! What are the odds? It worked out fine thank goodness...we got rerouted through Minneapolis and even got to fly first class from Minneapolis to Spokane. Not too shabby! Still, winter flying with children is always a bit of an adventure. Both of them did great though and we arrived in Spokane without any majors snafus.
Our week was great- we just hung out with Kyle's family and relaxed. We also watched the entire season 2 of Homeland- aMazing! And of course, Knox had a blast with his cousin Marek who is exactly one year older than him. He even got to go sledding for the first time. He wasn't too sure at first, but he ended up liking it. All in all, it was a great Christmas and we're sad to get back to the reality of life without vacation!
