Nathan is home!!!


No food today, but I thought I would share some pics and video from Nathan's welcome home ceremony yesterday.

I can't even begin to explain how it feels to have my best friend back home with me. It is AMAZING! The kids are beyond excited about having Daddy home. All the screaming freaked Eric out at the ceremony, but once we got out of the gym, he was fine. It is so awesome to see Eric taking to Nathan so quickly. He knows who his Daddy is and that makes me smile. :) Anya is a HUGE Daddy's girl and is glued to Nathan's side. They have such a sweet relationship.

I will get back to blogging and comments tomorrow. Nathan is working half days until block leave starts in June, so I have time to kill in the mornings. Thanks for all the excitement surrounding his return! We are SO glad to have him home!!!!

Me and the kids with Monica, Trav, and their kids. Thanks for

coming, guys!!! (And for the pics/video!)

Waiting.....
They are here!!!

Together again!
