Top 10 Reasons . . .


Our luck has got to change soon. Here’s our top 10 recap from this week’s adventures.

10. Waiting in line for three hours after flight to SLC was cancelled; going home and starting all over again the next day. (Thanks, John! for hanging in the cell phone parking lot)

9. Typical two-hour flight from SLC to Dallas turned seven-hour nightmare.

8. Ella puking up curdled milk all over her seat and the lady behind us.

7. Crew unable to open door after 7 hour nightmare on plane; sitting on tarmac for another ½ hour.

6. Ten o’clock at night, no luggage, no flights out of Dallas, and all hotels sold out--from three stars on up.

5. Trying to figure out what to do with two kids and no car seats. (Thanks, Matt! You saved the day)

4. Arriving back at Dallas airport the next night to discover agent neglected to rebook Kyle and Ella on same flight.

3. Unable to retrieve luggage in Birmingham. Baggage Agent’s brother was shot; she left the airport with the only key to American Airlines baggage room.

2. Getting ready to take the kids for a swim and realizing front tire on van is flat as a pancake. (I may be a mechanic’s daughter, but I'm no match for a jack and spare)

2. Volvo dying multiple times on kyle’s commute home from school; AC fan breaks in car.

1. Air conditioning unit blowing up in house upon arrival in Alabama. No freakin joke. Temp was 101 degrees today. Price of repair: $1500.

Kyle swears he’ll never fly again. On a brighter note, here's some pix from the trip.
