The Big Travel Day - Farewell from O'Hare

 The time has come!  Time to fly.

Jaden & Caleb are REALLY excited about their very first flight.  We stayed the night at Uncle Rich & Aunt Erica's house and even got to see little Cam for a bit.  Jonas & Valentin stayed in the basement on the futon & air mattress while Mom & Dad slept in Gloria's room, Caleb in Gabe's room, and Jaden in the upstairs living room.  Everyone was pretty excited so there wasn't a lot of sleep to be had.  We got up and on the road by about 7:00 AM.  The Schmidt flight to Miami was leaving at about 10:30 AM & the flight to Germany for Jonas & Valentin was leaving at 12:30 PM.  We said our final farewells at the airport and looked forward to seeing the boys again in the future!  It was a great time having Jonas for the year and we are really looking forward to keeping up with him for years to come.  Jonas even gave Dad some gift cards for fathers day and treated Caleb & Dad to some expensive airport McDonalds!
