Williams home coming!

We are very lucky in that our Daddy finally came home!!  After nine long months of separation he came home on Wednesday April 1st!  On Tuesday we got a call from the squadron saying that he would be arriving at 1pm, well Wednesday morning they called to say he would be home at 11:15.  So we hung up the banners and got ready for his arrival.  We watched his plane land and then went over to the flight line to pick him up.  It took two hours!!!  We waited in the sun for two hours for his bus.  But then he came home!  The best was that Lil'Will grabbed his face and stared at him for a while then turned his face in both directions before hugging him.  He was making sure that this was his daddy!  William was ready to go the moment he found us.  So I have a few pictures of that moment, but not much cause we were heading straight to the car.  He then spent the rest of the afternoon wrestling with the boys!  We are so excited to have him home.  He had to go into work on Friday and work the rest of this week processing back in, but after this week he will be home for the next two weeks and hopefully some more time after that!  It has been great to be a family again.  Actually it has been a very smooth transition.  We are just excited to spend some quantity time with him in the future!

The boys modeling their shirts and one of their banners.  We were going to bring them with us to hold but it was way to windy.  This one was actually retaped together after being torn apart by the wind outside.

we would see pictures of us all together, but since I am the one taking the pictures it leaves me out of the shot! Maybe it is time that we get some new family pictures taken!
