Arriving in California on Valentines Day

Here we are waiting to board our ridiculously short flight to Chicago. I think we taxied longer than we were in the air. Rebekah was so confused, she kept asking; "Are we flying?"
Look Out! Here comes the luggage. The Ohare Airport has a really nice play area designed by the Chicago Children's Museum at Navy Pier. We had a three hour layover here, so it was great for the girls to be able to use up some of their extra energy before the flight to California.
Alyssa worked so hard to get these sheets hung up as dividers that created little "rooms." The younger kids kept dismantling all her hard work.

Emma refueling the pretend jet.
Rebekah kept running up and down these stairs which led to a traffic control tower saying she needed to check her email.
Welcome to Chicago, Little Valentines!!
Rebekah slept for 2/3 of the 4 hour and 23 minute flight from Chicago to Orange County.
She did wake up in time to enjoy a few stories though. Our seats were separated from the rest of the family so I was not able to take pictures of the older girls. We sat next to a nice lady who seemed impressed that Kamele was content to sit and eat snacks and look at books. She travelled very nicely for us!
