Our Last Day-Day 8

Today was our last day of our trip. We were bummed that it was coming to an end, but we still had a few hours to pack in a a couple more things. We had breakfast and then Todd headed down to the pool with the kids while I got everything packed up. After a swim we thought we would go back and try to go putt-putt golfing again. This time it was a success. Although it did start to rain a bit while we were playing. The course was a Christmas course. It was cute with fake snow blowing around and Christmas music playing. 
After heading back to the hotel for lunch we wasted a bit of time in the arcade and then got ready to go to the airport (of course it was pouring down rain). Once we got to the airport at 4:00 for our 6:20 flight, we were told our flight would not be leaving until 8:40pm-UGH!!!! Todd and I had to mentally prepare to keep two kids busy in an airport for 4 1/2 hours. The kids were great. They both played on the ipads, watched a movie or we just walked around. 
By the time we landed in Detroit and I called my parents to pick us up it was 11:00pm. Both kids fell asleep on the plane for about an hour, so it gave them a little extra steam to make the ride home.
The kids were both full of stories to tell my parents, but also seemed very excited to be home and able able to sleep in their own beds.
It was a wonderful family trip with many memories made. Just what we needed to kick off our summer vacation.
