Well this weekend was our one year anniversary here in the US. I have to say that I still am having culture shock back into my "home" culture. I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would love Japan as much as I do and never thought I would say that I want to go back. I only hope that we are able to go back again so Savannah can see where she was born and do all the things that she will hear her brothers talk about. We came home on February 3, 2007. It was a long process that took exactly 24 hours from leaving the Navy Lodge to arriving at the airport in Jacksonville. I just remember sitting in baggage claim staring at our two carts of luggage, the 3 kids, it was about 11 at night and just wishing for a limo to pick us up. Instead Jaesen and I each drove a car to our hotel, took the dogs for a quick walk and headed off to Denny's at midnight to eat. I have to say that I did miss Denny's for a quick bite to eat at any time day or night. Now as we are waiting on Jaesen to come home from Iraq I just think how fast this last year has gone. Savannah is just about walking, her surgery did her wonders. The boys are each progressing at an alarming rate. Jack is excelling in school and Tristan can devour a book in one night. They are both so athletic (they get it from me you know!) and I started nursing school. What a crazy life we lead. And on that note the other morning Savannah was crying, when I found her this is what she loooked like. Instead of helping her I ran for my camera, it was really too funny to pass up. I don't know how she did it, but she got herself good and stuck.
