Now to deal with the jet lag. It was a 12 hour difference the last couple of days we spent in Hong Kong and they say it takes one day for every hour difference to get your body adjusted again. It has not been awful, but by 4:00 p.m. I am feeling it and if I stop to sit on the couch I would fall asleep, by 9:00 p.m. I am starting to see double and can't wait to get into bed. I then wake up around 4-5-6:00 a.m. and have been forcing myself to go back to sleep for a bit. If what they say is true we have 3 nights down and 9 to go.
I will add pictures over the next several days of our trip, but will share our homecoming with the kids. It was so good to be able to wrap our arms around them and hug them. We were blessed to be able to talk to them almost everyday through FaceTime (an iPhone/iPod app and completely free). I think it made it a lot easier for us and them. MeMe and Grandma said they did great and we are so thankful for such wonderful grandparents to help us out so that we could go.
We walked into the house with this sweet sign greeting us.
We picked up Brayden on Friday from Grandma's and got to see Sarah after school on Friday afternoon. They each got a few gifts from our trip. Sarah a ponytail holder, iPod purse and a Harajuku purse. Brayden a "Tin Tin" shirt, Cars 2 Legos and racing car Crocs. Oh, and we can't forget the little Star Wars toy that came out of the cereal box that our friends we stayed with had which includes stickers, tattoos and a notepad. Yeah, everything little counts with this kid. The best part was it didn't cost us anything.
We had an amazing trip and look forward to sharing with you more over the next week.
