He is finally home..

We're so glad that Sean is home! It has been a great weekend of just catching up and hanging out as a family. Since we had an MAF Christmas party to get to about 30 minutes after he arrived home on Friday, Sean and I ended up staying up until well after 1 a.m. that night talking about his trip. If you know Sean, you know he isn't a night person - at all. Obviously, we had a lot to catch up on. Sean learned a ton on his trip and he took hundreds of pictures for me so that I could see what it was like there.

We spent most of Saturday recovering from a very long week for both of us. Our whole family was exhausted by 11 a.m. and all four of us went to sleep for a good three-hour nap in the middle of the day! We are still catching up on sleep. I was asleep for the night by about 8 p.m. last night and slept hard until almost 7 this morning. Sean is still in bed, sleeping in later than he has in a very, very long time! Yep, I think today will call for another nap! We do have church this morning, so our nap today will have to wait until afternoon :-)

Madison and Brooklyn were so happy to see Sean when he got home. Madison had the hugest smile on her face when she saw her Daddy. It was just plain adorable. Brooklyn was ecstatic too and squealed and jumped up and down when she saw him coming through the gate! We are all three very fond of the guy, and missed him like crazy. I didn't realize just how much we were missing him, though, until he was back home. It is nice to have him home!
