All Together Now!!!

Adrienne came home on the 17th of November!  After being away from our family for five loooong months, you can imagine the excitement in our home that day!  We worked hard all week cleaning the house and we decorated her room.  We wanted everything to be perfect!  It was a Saturday and Richard and I had some errands to run in Idaho Falls and we were rushing to be sure we were home when she got there.  I was very emotional all day in anticipation of seeing my dear sweet daughter in person again!

Adrienne got up super early and made the long drive by herself!  She arrived around 5pm and despite the cold, Annalina was waiting on the front porch reading a book.  Jacob was at work, but the rest of us all ran out to her car and hugged her and when we got inside, Adrienne ran from room to room with the kids checking out her new home.  It was fun to watch their excitement at being together again!  She loved the streamers and balloons in her room and has left them up! Annalina was about an inch and a half shorter than Adrienne when we moved in June, now they are about the same height! It feels good to have the family back together!
