Our Warm Welcome

There are no words for our welcome at the airport after a very long and tiring flight.  Thank you to our friends, the Martinezs, for documenting so well!

She was stunned but very curious, and she handled herself quite well!

Here are some other shots from various other people:

Words cannot describe the feeling of hearing 'welcome home,' from the guy in security after a long wait in immigration!  Also, I can't begin to say how meaningful our welcome from family and our life group was.  We love you all very much, and our soft tshirts are the BEST!  

We came home to a very clean house (and cars) and to a delicious American cook out!  Once again, family, you spoil us in the best ways!!  We appreciated it so much.  At the time, I felt like a zombie since I hadn't slept and jet lag was just starting for all three of us.  Being around close family was just the medicine we needed.  Willow was not nervous once we got home either, which surprised us.  (She had been very reserved around Americans who were adopting when in China.)  It was like she sensed we were comfortable and just went with it!

First steps into the house as a family of three:

Grass is foreign to me!  

If I have a hand and some shoes, I will be brave and walk on it!
