Don't Be Shocked!

Seriously, don't be shocked! I'm all packed!! DH even loaded the bags in the car this morning before he left for a 1/2 day of work! :)

Four suitcases, four carry-ons, DH, me and two boys. Think we'll make it?

Connections are awfully close, and DH is convinced the bad weather across the states is gonna affect our travel! :) We have a lovely SEVEN HOUR layover in Anchorage. So if we do miss something on the way, it's not that big of a deal! If we make all of our connections, we're gonna use hotwire.com and get a cheap hotel for a few hours in Anchorage. There are limited flights going in to Kodiak. We miss the latest one by 15 minutes. It leaves at 10:30pm and we arrive in Anchorage at 10:45pm. The next one is their early jet flight leaving at 7am. Yuck! If the weather is bad in Kodiak (quite possible!) that morning jet is usually the one that will get in.

Here's hoping for no problems on the way up there !:) We leave at 2:30 pm eastern time which is 10:30am in Kodiak. By the time we land at 8:00am the next day, it will have been an almost 24 hour trip! Pray I have patience with the boys and DH! :)
