Camrynne Holmes is your average tomboy. It's hard not to be when you have 13 active, energetic brothers making your life more loud, crazy and of course fun and loving. Camrynne and her brothers love living out in the country side of Australia, lots...
I groaned and rolled over shoving my face into my pillow.
"Camrynne, mom says you have to get up or we're going to miss our flight." Isaiah whined.
"Fine,"
I rolled over lazily landing on the floor.
"Oomph,"
"Nice going," Isaiah chuckled.
"Leave now or die," I threatened pointing to the door. "Okay, but you have 20 minutes until we leave for the airport,"
"What!? Why didn't you wake me up earlier!" I yelled jumping off the ground.
"Because you wouldn't wake up," he replied, " I wasn't the first person who tried, I was a last resort."
"Gah!"
"15 minutes!" Isaiah said over his shoulder as he ran out of the room. Once he was out he ran down the hall and yelled, "Jack! You owe me 5 bucks!"
The bet on who could wake me up, unbelievable. I sighed, okay, I have about ten minutes to gather my luggage, eat breakfast and get dressed and stuff. I walked to my dresser and picked out a pair of jeans, my superman shirts and my blue Shoes and put them on.

I ran to the bathroom and brushed my hair as fast as I could and threw it into a ponytail. Grabbing the rest of my belongings from the bathroom, I bolted back to my room and threw it into a random suitcase.
I went downstairs and into the kitchen. I grabbed a pop tart I found on the counter and started to eat it as fast as I could.
"How ladylike" Finn said as he walked past me.
I stuck my tongue, with some chewed pop tart pieces, out at him and he gave me a disgusted look and continued walking to wherever he was going. After I finished my breakfast I ran back upstairs to get my remaining luggage. There wasn't too many suitcases due to the fact that majority of my stuff was already packed in a storage container to be shipped to our new house.
With my things in hand I stood in the doorway or my room and took one last look around at the empty space before closing the door.
Struggling to carry everything with one arm casted I waddled down the hallway towards the stairs. Coming the opposite way down the hall was Rhys.
"Hey Cam those look heavy do you need some help?" He offered.
"Yeah that would be great!" I replied thankful for the help. I stretched my arm out to hand home one of my bags but he pulled his arm away at the last second.
"Sorry I just remembered I have to do something," he said with a smirk on his face as he walked passed me towards his room laughing.
"Jerk face!" I yelled at him then sighed picking my bags back up. He was never going to help me anyway. I should have seen that coming.
. . . . .
The ride to the airport was crammed, to say the least. Trying to fit our huge family into two Suburbans plus all of our remaining luggage and the dogs was quite squishy. We split it 8 and 8 in each car plus one dog. I somehow got stuck in the backseat between Jack and Gavin who bickered the entire way about who was going to win the Super Bowl this year.
I was relieved when the ride was over and I could get some fresh air. Everyone crowded around the trunk of the car trying to grab their bags all at the same time which caused mayhem. Everyone was yelling at each other trying to squeeze in close enough to retrieve their belongings. The scene causing passing people to stare. I waited until the boys were done to get my stuff then joined the crowd around my parents as they handed us all our boarding passes.
Once everyone above the age of 10 had their tickets our crowd of 16, plus Einstein and Sherlock, made its way to airport security. It was quite hectic trying to get everyone through but we managed to do it in an impressive time of 20 minutes. I think that's a new record for us.

After putting the dogs in their crates and handing them off the the airport staff to put on the plane we made it to our gate, B8. I let out a tired sigh as I plopped down in a seat in the boarding area.
It was only a matter of minutes before they were calling for our flight to be boarded. With the permission asked for by my mother, we got to board first.
"I think lost my ticket!" I heard Will yell out.
Just before my parents went off on him screaming he pulled out the rectangular piece of paper exclaiming,
"Just kidding!" He chuckled nervously as mom glared at him.
I handed the attendant my ticket and my passport to scan. She handed it back and I made my way down the tunnel to get on the plane. Once I got on I searched for my seat. Finally finding it I sat down in 18B. A minute later I found myself sitting between none other than my fellow triplets. Great this should be fun. Why did I have to get stuck in the middle?
I looked over to the next row and saw Xavier reading the safety pamphlet. Leaning over I whisper yelled to him,
"Psst! Xavier, switch spots with me!" I pleaded.
He looked up at me and who I was sitting between.
He scoffed, "You wish! There's no way I'm sitting between Rhys and Will."
I huffed returning to my seated position. This is going to be a long flight.
"Oh come on Cammy we're not that bad are we?" Will said with a smirk.
"Kill me now," I muttered to myself.
Preparing myself for the 15 hour journey we were about to take part in I put my earbuds into my ears, put on my music playlist and closed my eyes.
