Family is here!

After waiting weeks and weeks, the family is now all here living together! I used an app called Airport All to track their flight, so I easily knew when they landed (which was 20 minutes early!). I anxiously awaited their arrival at the International Arrivals area and sure enough they all came out with big smiles on their faces. 

They brought 9 bags. A nice airport employee pushed a cart of bags for them. He wasn't interested in stopping for our hugs and kisses, so he plowed through the crowd and took the bags another 30 meters, which was fine.

9 bags don't really fit in a small European car, so we jammed them in, to include multiple bags in our laps. After a short drive, we arrived "home". I had handwritten "Welcome Home" notes, plus I blew up balloons and filled the house with stuff. The kitchen was fully stocked and each of their beds had the welcome note along with fresh chocolate from Belgium as well as other toys and candies. I also put their tickets to Buckingham Palace as well as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory near their pillows. They were very excited about everything, in fact they've been sleeping a long time, probably due to all the excitement :)

Our internet connection doesn't start for a few more days so we might be a little quiet online until then.

Very excited to officially start this unique opportunity of a lifetime together as a family!
