Home Sweet Home:)

It is so good to be home! Thanks for all of your prayers for good travel:) Betsy did great!! She slept almost nine hours of our twelve hour flight!! I still can't believe it. That long flight was the one I dreaded most coming home. I had a hard time with it , but not her. There's just no way to get really comfortable. Betsy is so small that she had no problem. Once she got her thumb in her mouth it was all over for her;) We couldn't wait to see Hugh and Henry when we arrived in Huntsville. When we got off the plane Betsy saw a bag of chips in a bag I was carrying and wanted them really bad. I told her to wait...just a minute(using hand motions). It was some Sun Chips that the stewardess had given us on our filght from LA to Memphis. They were a cheddar cheese flavor...very messy. I knew we were about to see friends and family who had come to greet us, and wanted her to look cute...not messy and smelling like cheese! Usually she will wait until I can give her what she wants, but she had a little melt down. Todd picked her up, gave her a small sucker, and she calmed down quickly. Ellie was so worried that she would be crying when we met everyone waiting to welcome us home. She was fine:) When we got to the escalator to go down to where our friends and family were waiting I saw Hugh and Henry's sweet smiling faces, and tears filled my eyes. I couldn't wait to put my hands on those boys! It was an awesome homecoming:) Everyone was waiting with signs, smiles, and even bouquet of flowers. We were so thankful to see everyone! Thanks to all who came to welcome us home. It is a moment I will never forget. There were several friends who couldn't make it for different reasons...ballgames, spring break, etc...thanks for your prayers. When our flight plans changed it made it impossible for some friends, who really wanted to be there, to make it. We appreciate your emails, comments, and can't wait for you to meet Betsy soon! Betsy did great her first night home. She slept in her bed all night! I think it helped that Ellie shares the room with her. She saw Ellie in her bed, got in hers, and went to sleep! Hopefully tonight will be the same...we'll see. On a side note...Henry has a stomach virus! He started vomiting last night after supper. He is better now:)  I will share pictures from our homecoming soon! Several friends had their cameras, so I will get pics from them. That's all for now!
