FIRST AIRPLANE RIDE (RI to UT)

 FIRST AIRPLANE RIDE!!! At the last minute we decided (and Elaine graciously offered) to have the kids fly home with her so Ryan and I could finish cleaning and packing our house; and work a few days together at the hospital before our trip to Utah. The kids were overjoyed. They couldn't believe that they got to go to Utah without Mom and Dad, and that they got to ride on an airplane. It was a momentous day. We of course were very nervous the whole time hoping all would go well. But there was no need to worry. Of course the kids were fantastic for Elaine and had a blast flying with Grandma.
