Our Sweet Reunion

Reunited and it feels so goooood.




That was us about one month ago.

Yes it was amazing...Yes we had the time of our lives...and yes, sadly, the time FLEW by!

Jon's visit started with what seemed like the longest day of our lives because his flight status kept changing ...he was supposed to arrive at 3pm...and in the end he arrived at 9pm. I know it doesnt seem like a long delay, but believe me, it WAS! We had a small group of friends and family there to greet him. I kept watching the clock when 9pm rolled around because he was supposed to walk down that airport escalator around 9:10...so when my friend Scott said, "Angela, Angela look...." This is what happened next!!!



Of course I had imagined that moment for months, imagining me watching him come down those stairs...but that's not what happened...when my friend said my name..I was busy doing something; paying no attention to the people coming down the stairs bc Jon wasnt supposed to be there yet, his flight status was still showing they were landing...To my wonderful surprise I looked up and freaked out and just ran up to him....oh there were tears!


And this is what our precious boy did...when he saw Jon he slowly walked up to him...and just went right up to his arms..and just studied him. He didnt cry at all, which he normally does with peeps he hasnt seen in awhile.



Oh man...our family was together again...for 2 whole weeks.

It was amazing. A M A Z I N G!

God truly blessed us with so many incredibly planned events that couldn't have gone better, with seeing family from out of town...to seeing old friends in College Station. We did so many fun things here in San Antonio.


I will keep this one short, and promise to post more each day for the next few days, so as to not have a huge long picture blog mess.


Here was the first order of business when Jon arrived
...He wanted to buzz his lil hair off. ( if you noticed Noah's hair was super duper long, we tried gel'n it up into a mohawk for Jon's arrival, but it was so long, it just kind of hung to one side)....

and I will show the buzz results soon....

Yay! I am just weeping looking at these beautiful pictures of one of my very favorite families. We are praying for these next months to fly by and for the Lord's protecting hands to remain on your precious fam. We love you!
