Christmas in Illinois

We went to Illinois to visit my family this year for the holidays. It was supposed to be a surprise to my family, but after it took 2 days to get out of the Washington snowstorm we kind of had to tell them we were coming. Oliver traveled like a champ. This was his 5th plane trip afterall. The boy needs a mileage plan. We had a GREAT time being with family and sharing our little man with his grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who all live so far away. It was a fantastic trip for all of us and worth every flight delay! A special thank you goes out to Grandpa Fred, who made it all happen. The best christmas present ever.
