Sweet Reunion!

Whoo-hoo! My sister and Kyle arrived in Tallahassee last night! They flew in for Grace's blessing on Sunday. And...oh how sweet our reunion was! Carson ran to Kyle at full force and leapt into his arms...almost knocking him over! Mindy and I naturally melted into each other's arms and cried. It's amazing - although it's been 2 long months since we've seen each other, once we were together, it was like we'd just seen each other yesterday...we just naturally picked up where we left off! I know that it will always be like that. We will miss each other in between visits, but will be able to just slip into that easy, natural, loving relationship each time we're together!

As we were leaving the house, Trent asked me if I had brought the stroller for Grace. I told him that I was just going to carry her into the airport. He's like, "you mean I will carry her?" (Thinking that I meant carrying the car seat). I replied that no, I was just going to carry her without her car seat because I knew that Mindy was not going to wait until we got home to get her hands on Grace...lol! And, as you can see in the second picture...after Mindy and I let go of each other, she reached for Grace! I love how she's holding her out so that she can get a good look at her and how much she's grown! Since they got here, I think I've only had to feed Grace once (the 4am feeding...lol) because her and Kyle want to do it!

So what are we going to do? Hhhmm...well today the kids are at school and Trent's at work...so we'll just hang out and maybe show them some sights. Also on the agenda for their visit is a trip to Wakula Springs to see the gators, a meal at Buffalo Wild Wings (for Kyle), celebrating Karlee's birthday, and of course, Grace's blessing on Sunday! Most of all, we're just going to be together, catch up...and love each other!

I love it!!!! I've been wondering if those two made it and how happy you must all be to be reunited. Tell Mindy enjoy herself but that I want her to come back. Be sure to check out her cute pink toes too. Have so much fun, esp with the blessing of Grace. Love Steph
