Stateside

We are happy to say we landed after a fun two days of travel!
We started our journey on friday with a taxi ride from Mildenhall into London. I really enjoy hearing stories and our taxi driver had a few to tell because he was in the military in GB. He was actually a good driver and no one got sick in the car and he even knew the back roads so we weren't stuck on the M25 for too long. The hotel was nice and the food was very pricey....an exchange rate not in our favor always made that the case. We all five actually slept well the night before our flight and that made for easier traveling.
My only problem with the flight was some of the attendants were not as friendly as they could have been. I have to laugh when someone works in services and acts like they are doing you a favor when you ask for something. They were all friendly at the beginning of the flight and a few stayed that way the whole flight but two were a bit grouchy by the end of the flight.
Our flight took off about 40 minutes late and that probably worked out best because we landed at RDU in between storms. If we had arrived a little earlier we would have been diverted to Charlotte and then had to wait out the storm then fly back to RDU.
We got through the airport with no delays and was greeted by Mom and Dad (Memom and Papa) as soon as we left the baggage area! We had three very happy little girls (and Rob and I)and two very happy grandparents. Sarah let Papa hold her on the way to the car and Memom held her at dinner. We were all surprised because she is in the stranger stage and normally cries when someone she is not use to holds her. (Talking to them on the phone must have helped her)
When we arrived at Memom and Papa's house we were greeted by a happy old dog, Sissy! Sissy is looking much older than we expected she would (but she is 11). Sissy is currently trying to make up for 6 months of Sissy kisses on Sarah:)
I will try and post some pictures and more updates as we get adjusted to life in the states.
