We flew all night, stopping in northern Alabama for fuel. The kids slept most of the night on the plane. Mike was flying and I just had trouble getting comfortable to fall asleep. Eventually we had made it through the night and were flying into the morning sunrise above the clouds. It was beautiful.
The kids did sleep for most of the flight.

We stopped for gas in Winchester Virginia and then took a quick flight to the airport in Montgomery Village Maryland. Landed there around 930am eastern.
My parents picked us up and drove us to Becky's (
