Back Home and Back to REAL Life

Chill finally made it home Saturday night safe and sound and boy was I glad. (Don't worry though, he flew business class home from Moscow to New York, I'm telling you this kid got lucky everywhere he went in this trip). Friday and Saturday were the longest days...wondering if he was ever going to make it home. It was so fun to finally get to see him. It had been a LONG 33 days. It took Carson a minute to figure out what was going on, but he warmed right up to Chill. We spent about 30 minutes waiting for Chill's bags and they never came...well it turns out I went to the wrong baggage claim. It was the next one over and his bags were sitting right there and probably had been for a long time. All I could say is "welcome home Chill" I'm telling you this is the story of my life. 99% of the time in our marriage I am wrong about things like this, but Chill's used to it. He just smiled and grabbed the bag and we headed home. We had a great time talking, looking at pictures, and getting lots of cool gifts. Our weekend was fun weekend, but way to short. On Monday morning Chill started a new rotation so he's back to work and Carson and I are back to doing our thing (whatever our thing is)!



Don't I look good in my Russian stuff? Cooking has never been so fun.

Hooray! I'm so glad he's home. You look awesome in your Russian garb. I hope you wear it every night! :)

Hey glad to hear you made it home! We felt bad getting on that NY flight without you, but from your blog it looks like you got to enjoy the Ritz in Moscow, so that probably made the extra day worth it along with meeting Kirlenko.
