here we are in New Hampshire!

We made it, every one of us, no one got left behind in an airport (lucky for them). The kids did relatively well on the trip back to the states, all things considering. We woke them up at 11 pm to start our trip, arrived at the Dammam airport, checked in and walked right on the plane, thankfully. Oliver fell asleep on takeoff and slept awhile longer, but Lily had a harder time. Greg finally got her to rest in her chair, and she slept for a few hours. We arrived in Frankfurt 6 hour later and had a lot of time to kill before our flight left for Boston. Thankfully our double stroller was handed to us at the gate, so we didn't have three bags and two kids to carry, we could push some of our load! This was difficult because by the end of our 6 hour layover we were tired of running after Lily and just ready for a nap! We got on our full flight to Boston and breathed a sigh of relief that the last leg of our journey had started. The kids did well on this flight, Oliver napped in the baby bassinet, and Lily napped on Greg. Thankfully we had a seat for Lily as well, so we didn't feel so cramped. We were really glad to land in Boston, where the kids did really well as we cleared customs and got our luggage. All our bags made it, I think we did really well in that department, 2 car seat bags, 1 pack and play bag, 1 duffle, 2 big suitcases, and 1 small suitcase! Plus two backpacks and a diaper bag that were carried on. Thankfully Nana and Papa met us with the truck. We were very excited to see Nana and Papa and Auntie Kellie at the end of our journey. When we got the kids into the car seats and gave them a snack they passed out!

It is good to be back home in the states!
