Back home Again!!

We had a really busy Monday. A long-time co-worker of Keiths passed away from cancer and we took the kids and attended the "Celebration of Life" at Admiral Baker's. It was a really moving tribute to him. Lots of raised eyebrows but we stuck it out :) anyway. On the way back to S'te's we stopped by so I could say so long to my friends. Again, I didn't get to spend any amount of time with them. Days go so fast and once the sun starts setting - I do toooooo.

Our return trip was really well coordinated. Our flight out of SAN was delayed an hour because of bad weather in DFW but once we got into the air - everything ran like clockwork. I don't think we'd hardly got off the ground and all 4 kids went to sleep (it was past their naptimes!!) and they slept almost the whole first flight. We merely got off of one plane - took the "SKYCAR" (which Pelik loved) to the next terminal - walked up to the gate - got on the plane and whoosh - we were on our middle leg home. Got our luggage (it was ALL there) and walked out the door and the shuttle to the parking lot was right there. Now I know how those celebreties feel with everything running soooo smoothly hehe.

Arrived home with all kids sleeping again and managed to get them into their beds without waking them - and crashed!!! Slept in until almost 8 and was up before them!!

I think we are all jet lagged today tho'. Boo is having a terrible time. She has booo'd all day and Mary just runs from one thing to another to get reprimanded for. She just doesn't know what to do with herself. Pelik is just taking it easy. He's got his Spiderman stuff from his birthday and he's in 7th heaven!!

Got Channel 2 slideshow edited and back on the community channel and stuck a movie in the vcr for Channel 9. Tomorrow I may bring the bags in from the screen room and unpack. I think I'm a little "lagged" tooooo.

Enjoyed my visit with the grandkids and big kids. They are progressing continually in the quest for the "Money Pit" and doing wonderful things with their Church. They certainly stay busy!!! I got tired just watching them!!! Glad to be home but can't wait to be able to see them again. . .

Glad that you made it back home safely. Also glad that it wasn't nearly as eventful as the flight out here!!

You are a star, Sis! Just traveling with all those children makes you one! I am glad your trip home was easy! God seems to give us what we need, huh? Good to hear you are taking settling in easy too - the bags can easily wait a day!
