Adam's home!!
Finally, after getting stuck in the Atlanta snow, he finally arrived last night! All I can say is, better than any Christmas!!!!! I keep waiting to wake up....hoping this is real!Above: Emma's to the left in this pic yelling because Sarah just ripped the banner. Isaac, assessing the situation.

The kids were ECSTATIC!
One big, happy family.
Waiting for the luggage. That took a few minutes, the tug got stuck in the snow.

The crew announced on the plane that Adam was returning from 7 months in Iraq, and the plane all clapped for him, which of course drew WAY more attention to himself than he would have appreciated. He tried to be the last one off the plane, and several people stopped and thanked the kids and I for his service. Totally nice, made me cry before he even got off. The girls felt like rocks stars and loved it. I really need them to go to at least a half-day of school today, after having all 5 home yesterday because of snow, but then we're going to check them out and go to lunch at the Chinese Buffet.
Ok, so I knew I was at the end of my rope, and I missed Adam like crazy, but hadn't realized how much!! It is SOO...I can't even come up w/a word good enough....to have him home!!!

Been thinking about you guys today, I'm glad he finally made it. When David would get home from the ship deployments, I would keep staring at him and thinking, geez he's tall. I was the tallest one in the house for so long, and now here's this tall man, it was kind of funny, the things you don't realize about your husband while he's gone, until he gets home. I'm really excited for you guys. Now, a girls' night out is in order?! :)

He looks great and your kids look so thrilled. You can now take some deep breathes and relax. He is safe and you survived.
I am sure that you will sleep like a rock now that he is here and you can just breathe again!

I love these pictures, why didn't he wear his military clothes? Would that draw to much attention to him?

Shalice said...

YIPEEE!!!! I am so glad you finally have him home safe. I was crying reading your post.....so great to have a Dad around. You don't realize how much they really do until they are not around.

I hope you get a little break, and can finally breath. You are amazing Becky - good work making it to the end. Tell Adam thanks for all his hard work - we all appreciate it!

Are you guys coming to Utah this summer? My kids are dying to see your kids!
