Homeward Bound!!!

Finally, after 6 months of paper chasing, three mths waiting for our 171, two and a half months after being logged in and five weeks waiting for travel approval, Gracie is coming home!! Can I hear an AMEN!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!
I am finally going to get to hold my baby.They should arrive tomorrow around 3:30. I ended up hiring a van to bring them home. As much as I want to be there, I really don't want to drag four kids and myself down to the airport. They would also have to miss a half day of school and it's only been 4 days since they started. I will see them once they get here and hopefully it won't as hectic as the airport.

Enjoy some pics from yesterday!! Behold the Elvis hair in all it's glory!!!
