THEY'RE HOME!

Our Minna and Banca are HOME! The plan was to head over to their house first thing after church because they would be home. During the second hour of church I was in a YW meeting when my dear friend Camille comes in with tears in her eyes and a look of urgency. I said, "What's wrong?" and she replied, "They're here!". I literally went running. Sweet Jane was saw me walking and she starting walking toward me and we both started crying and hugging. I think I was so emotional because Jane is the closest thing I have to a mom since mine is so far away.  Lucas was asleep in my arms and Jane took him and couldn't believe how tall he was.

After church we still went over to their house and Lucas was awake. He went straight to Banca and gave him a big hug. It was so sweet. Then he didn't want anyone BUT Banca. He just kept smiling, hugging and patting his shoulder. We all came over for dinner and had the best time. Jamie and Cari and crew stopped by as well. We are so lucky to have some grandparents home! 

I think all the excitement wore Lucas out. He took a 3 hour 45 minute nap. He just woke up and it eating his "ba-ba" and watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse--his new favorite. :-)


I think our Minna was equally are tired from all the excitement...

We can't wait to spend more time with our Minna and Banca....hopefully they don't get sick of us! :-)

So great that they are home!! My dad saw you run up to Jane and told us at dinner how sweet the reunion was! Lucas sure is cute! And Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is Graham's favorite too! He loves to do the "hot dog dance"! ;-)
