Daddy's Home!










Brad left for Argentina last Sunday afternoon and returned yesterday afternoon. He was gone for a very long 8 days!!! We missed him so much and he missed us. He was very busy in Argentina and didn't have a lot of free time, but he did manage to shop for his girls! They were very excited to see him come home and to get his gifts. Daddy got the girls a traditional paper mache doll and a toy doll. He got Alea a sweater and Braylen and necklace. His translator got the girls the ponchos! They love them. When they first opened them, they were switched. Braylen wore hers to school today to show off. I got a necklace and a wooden wind chime type musical instrument. We have started a tradition of getting the girls authentic dolls whenever we travel abroad. So far they have dolls from Kazakhstan, Brazil, Grand Caymen Islands, Amish land, Taiwan and now Argentina.


The girls also bought Daddy a gift with Papaw Bruce's help. Daddy got John Deere Christmas ornaments. It was a fun evening yesterday celebrating Daddy's homecoming! We all slept very well last night all together as a family again. I may post pictures later of Brad's trip...we'll see :)

I can't remember or not if I left a comment on your Halloween post. I just wanted to say that your two made really cute Thing 1 and Thing 2! How neat that you were looking forward to this day for such a long time. It finally came! YAY! :)
