It's Always Fun When Grandma Comes!!

Finally!! The day we had all been waiting for, and counting down to for forever (75 days to be exact) had finally arrived!  May 4th, the day Grandma was flying to Kalgoorlie!  Yay!  Lily and Ava even made special meet grandma at the airport shirts that said, I love Grandma.  We were so excited.  We had to wait all day long until 5:30 at night to pick Grandma up at the airport, but finally the time had arrived.

 We waited excitedly as people came off the plane.  We even saw some friends, but still no grandma!

 Finally, one of the last ones to exit the plane, Grandma made it!!  The girls are jumping for joy!

 After, who knows how many hours flying, (too many to write out, it's painful!) Grandma got to have her first Sofie snuggle!  Makes it all worth it!  Just like childbirth!  ;)

 Grandma came bearing gifts, from her and Grandma Rappleye.

 Thank you, Grandma Rappleye for the Lala Loopsy and all the other fun and exciting things you sent for us!

 Grandma's suitcase was full of her handiwork!  Just thought I would showcase a few of her amazing master pieces.

 I specifically asked for American stuff we could sport on the 4th of July.  Aren't these amazing?

 The Sofie Snail bug bag!  Lily has assigned all the kids in the family an insect.  She is a ladybug, Ava is a butterfly, not sure about Will, he seems to always be changing, but last I asked he was a bumblebee and now Sofie gets to be a snail.

 Grandma even brought some much needed new suits for Bishop Rowe.

Thank you, Grandma, for enduring the long, miserable flight to come visit us and for giving up all of your suit case space to bring us wonderful things from America!  We love you!
