Chapter 26- Idahome

We are finally going home tomorrow. To Idaho. We are all packed up.

We've been here for almost a month now, and I've gotten so close to Adam. He's so cool.

I've met some other cool people too. I still haven't talked to Meredith yet.

Gavin is still being rude and I'm not sure why. I tried to ask Avia but every time I I try to talk to her, she brings up how much she loves this kid Liam.

Brock is sleeping in my room because Dax was sick in his room and he's scared that the "sick is still there"

Of course, Dax is sick. The day before the trip home he gets sick at daycare.

Dayton has to go to daycare because mom and dad are so busy. It's really sad because they always had time for us and they always brought Brock to work and meetings. They are just getting too busy I guess.

Anyways, Brock is asleep next to me.

I wanna talk a little about Gav. I wanna know what's wrong, he's been acting all weird since he came home from his first day of school. I wanna find out. And I will.

Alright, I better get some sleep, early morning tomorrow.

My alarm goes off at 5:45. We leave at 7. I get up without waking up Brock. I quickly shower, then wake Avia up.

"Wake up princess. Go shower" I said. She asked me to wake her up so she could go before everyone else last night.

I go back to my room and wake Brock up. I turn on the tv in my room so he watch it while I get ready. I go get Dax, who is feeling much better and he started dancing around on my bed, which made Brock angry.

I put on a pair of those Adidas pants, you know the ones soccer players at school wear? yea, those. And a t shirt. I throw the last things in my back pack and go to Brock's room and grab him some clothes. He gets ready. (I have a walk in closet, that's where I got ready) and dress Daxton.

it's 6:15 and mom and dad are still asleep. So I wake Emmi and Gavin up so they can get ready.

finally, mom and dad get up.

We finally scramble out to door at 7.

We're on the plane, mom is at the front of the plane with Daxton and Brock, I'm with Avia, Dad is by himself , and Gavin is with Emmi. Mom and dad bought the tickets and didn't get seats together.

Avia started to watch a movie on the iPad, despite Brock wanting it.

So I decided to text Adam. He's probably my new best friend at school.

Hey dude! I'm on the plane!

Yo bro. I just woke up!

I'm super bored, let me know how practice goes tonight!

Will do! have a safe flight!

I had to turn off my data.  I was so tired.

All of the sudden I woke up and we were landing. I looked out the window as the pilot's voice came out of the speaker.

We are about to land in Salt Lake City, Utah. Current time is 5:36. Thanks for flying American Airlines.

Finally. Home.

A few moments later, we were on the ground. Man it felt good to be in Utah. Almost in Idaho. I haven't been here in a long time. Since summer. We were too busy at thanksgiving to come home, so we stayed and had thanksgiving in California.

When we got off the plane, we all met at the gate. Mom, Dayton, Gavin, Avia and I went to get the bags and Dad, Emmi and Brock went to get the rental car.

We went fast so we could meet dad faster. Then we hopped in the car and got on the road.

The drive is only two hours, but when you're waiting to get to where you really wanna go, it feels like forever.

"THE IDAHO SIGN, THE IDAHO SIGN!" Emmi yelled.

"And we are home!" Dad said the moment we passed the sign.

Man it felt good to be back here.
