we decided to split up for the journey down to our new home.
we all drove to great falls together, and then matt (and tank) finished the rest of the drive with my dad while the boys and i flew to gilbert to spend a couple days with my mom and avoid 15 hours of the drive.
we flew with allegiant, so i should have known we would have some delays.
but it was still super depressing when our 8:30pm flight got pushed back to 11:30 pm.
tad was a total jerk because he refused to let me get comfy on the flight - every time i tried, he woke up - so i was tired.. he was tired.. the big boys were tired too.
oh well.. we made it there in one piece and had a really fun time with my mom.
our first day there was july 4th (as if there is a better day to move to america then the most american day of all!)
that night, we got dressed in patriotic attire that my mom got for us, and headed off to a july 4th celebration.
at the end of the night there was a 30 minute firework show that the boys somehow managed to stay up to watch.
chet loved it the most.
now we are in our new home, in pasadena, and i will have lots to share about that soon!
