We're back!
After a couple of extra hours in Sydney due to weather we were finally on our way.
We landed at DFW around 3:00 PM and even though it's supposed to be the busiest travel day of the year it wasn't too chaotic.
We appreciated Ben letting us stay at his place Wednesday and Thursday night. It was a busy time because we were helping him shop for a new car which was something he really needed. He's now the proud owner of a low mileage one prior owner Nissan Rouge.
Thanksgiving Day was a little bittersweet since we weren't going to be with Sarah, Joey and Sweet Baby James although we knew we'd be seeing them on Friday.
We're so fortunate to have great friends like Rob and Pam McNeely who I've written about previously. They were kind enough to open their home to a homeless family so Beth, Ben and I joined them for an outstanding Thanksgiving feast. I told them that they could possibly include the expense of the meal as a charitable contribution since they were feeding homeless people! Friday afternoon after
helping Ben finalize the purchase of the car we were off to Fort Smith.
We arrived around dark and boy was it great seeing Sweet Baby James........and Sarah & Joey too!
He's almost five months old now. He's grown so much, has a smile that will melt your heart and in my unbiased opinion is about the cutest thing ever.
Even though we couldn't all be together at the same time we're grateful that we have been able to spend some time with both Ben in Burleson and Sarah, Joey and SBJ in Fort Smith.
A special weekend with very special people!
