The Big Surprise

Back in April, Kirk and I found out that we had to go to some training in July in the States.  We decided not to tell anyone, so the morning we left we woke the girls up with; "get up we are going to America today!"  They did not believe us!!!  Ayden said "no, I don't want to go to Arabic today."  They didn't believe us for awhile but when they did they were so excited!!!  We left about 30 min. after waking them up and then started our long haul to the USA.  We had one short flight and then one really long 16 hour flight.  I was a little worried, but the kids did great!!!  Abram did much better then I thought he would, he was really good.  Kirk's mom and a friend picked us up from the airport, we had a wonderful first meal with them of BBQ.  The next morning we surprised my family that had no idea we were coming!  It was a lot of fun!!!  2 surprises, one we are home and 2 kirk and I are leaving in the morning for training for 2 weeks.  They didn't seem to mind that they would have the kids for 2 weeks!





Abram gets a little tired in the airport!  No worries mom, I pick him right up then and cleaned his pacifier.  

Such good travelers!  

Ayden was excited, about 100 movies to choose from.  16 hours of non-stop movies, what a fun trip!!!

Abram wasn't as interested in the movies but he did like playing with the headphones.

Happy watching movies!!

Our first meal back in the states!  Abram enjoyed pork for the first time!!!

First day at home with our cousins.
