We're HOME...

Well...sort of... Our flight was good. 14 1/2 hours to Washington and Fayth slept for about 6 of them. We read books, colored, played with baby, and tried to keep her as busy & quiet as possible. Then the second leg was from Washington to Chicago...We got smart...put her car seat on the airplane in her own seat and she fell dead asleep before take-off and woke up at the gate at O'hare. Now that's the way to travel with a 2 year old!!!!!!!!!! Friday...it was great. Gammy Evenson took the day off and the four of us went to breakfast, for 2 year old pictures, did some shopping and had a really nice day together. Friday night...equally as wonderful. Jon's sister and her family came over and FAYTH was in heaven. Yes, it was Chloe and Ben, Fayth's cousins, and hours of fun for Fayth! Now the sort of part comes in... You know how things happen in 3's...Yes, like the Evenson 3. Well, I got a bad case of the stomach flu on Friday in the middle of the night. It was wicked! I was bumming & in bed!! So, Jon and Fayth headed to Milwaukee for Mia, our god-daughters 3rd birthday party, and guess what...Fayth started "pooping" and it wouldn't stop. It almost cleared out the party early as Dave & Robin put it!! So earlier than expected...they headed home. And you know what's next. Poor Jon...he was destined...and YES...he has been sick since yesterday. So, we are KINDA home but not the "REAL US!" Luckily for Jon's folks...they have a lake house and have escaped the germs (at least we hope) and jet-lagged sleepers the last few nights!! However; Jon is on the mend and feeling much better today. So...home...YES...but this trip surely didn't start out the way we planned it!
