Back Home!

Well, I had an awesome dream last night that we were in Prattville and the weather was really warm and then we walked in our house and looked in the pantry to find snacks that we love even written in English, and in the laundry room was a dryer to dry clothes again, and then we took baths in clear water and then....OH WAIT...that wasnt a dream..IT REALLY HAPPENED...WOOHOO!!!!! Really, it was funny, it is amazing how you can forget what your home looked like just being away for 40 days! We all 3 walked in and our house and it seemed HUGE to us and totally different than before. Everything seemed new and we kept telling my mom that she had to have done something different to it, because it just seemed new to us. Every inch of it felt so comfortable and although we already miss some things about Ukraine, especially our friends there, we all are glad to be home even if it may be just a short time. Grant was so sweet this morning, he was so excited to have waffles again that he made us all breakfast in bed this morning. We are now trying to recover from the jet lag and get back to Alabama time, but Trish G. you were right the flight is much easier coming to Alabama than going to Ukraine! I think we will recover a little quicker this time. I will post again soon, but for now just wanted to let you know that we arrived home safely!!!

Glad to read that you've arrived safely! I know that on one hand you're not looking forward to the trip back here, but, on the other hand, the result is so worth it that you'll gladly make it...but just wanted you to know that we're glad that we'll get to see you again on this side! Enjoy your days at home...

We'll meet the Farrington boys tomorrow at church!
