The Story of our Extremely Long Flight to Utah.....

That look on Tatum's face is the result of our long trip to Utah.

The shorter version so I don't bore you all started when our flight got delayed twice before we left the Columbus airport. We were suppose to leave at 3 pm and didn't leave until 8 pm. One of the planes we got on started smoking throughout the cabin so they made us get off and no one was allowed back on. We ended up waiting 6 hours before we left and our connecting flight in Las Vegas was no longer available. So the airlines put us up in a hotel when we landed in Vegas. The bummer part was that our luggage got sent to Utah that night so we had no change of clothes and Tatum decided to puke all over mommy on the long flight therefore I was not smelling all that good that this point. The hotel had complimentary toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, and shave products for our poor stranded family. Taking a fresh shower was pleasant but putting back on our dirty clothes was not so pleasant. We may have gotten a total of 5 hours of sleep then we had to be back at the airport to catch our hour flight to Utah. When we arrived to Utah and took the 40 min drive to Orem Tatum decided to tell us all how tired and angry she was by screaming pretty much the whole drive home. She went straight down for a long nap when we got there.

The only perks from that awful trip was that both Todd and I were given $100 vouchers to use for our next flight with them and Tatum got to have her very own queen size bed to herself in the Vegas hotel. Other than that we just want to forget about that flight all together.
