Headed Home!!!!

Wed. May 20, 2015

We boarded our plane to come home.  It was almost 13 hours and the boys did awesome.  A little meltdown from Owen in the beginning and a little one from Konnor in the end, but let's be honest, Mommy wanted a meltdown to after sitting on a plane that long.  Owen slept 8 hours of the flight and Konnor a good 6 so it really wasn't all that bad.

We landed in LA and raced through customs.  I may or may not have burst into tears when the customs officer handed us back our passports, looked at Owen and said "Welcome Home."  Maybe just a few tears.  We opted to stay the night in LA since it was 9 by the time we got done with customs.  We headed to the hotel, grabbed some expensive hotel food, calmed our soooo done with it boys down and headed to bed.  The next morning we boarded the plane that would bring us to St. Louis.  Both boys slept the entire flight (maybe b/c they got up at 2).  My Mom met us at the airport, my friend/fellow adoptive Mama Karrie took homecoming pictures for us and we headed home.  Mark's parents met us at the house and we all got to visit for a little bit before crashing hard.

More to come.....
