Tuesday

I will try to update more tomorrow because I am pretty tired right now! But it is good to be home! We flew back in today.

Overall things went well. Our younger two kids were happily surprised that we actually came home the day we said we would. Usually we have been delayed. So that was a happy experience for our family to have! :)

I will leave it at that for now!
