Happy Halloween!
October 31, 2010
After the game, I went back to Austin to spend a week with Evan's family. Evan drove back to Houston with Grandpa and drove to Alabama on Sunday. It was Halloween and Isaac and Josie were all dressed up when the came over.

We didn't get dressed up on Halloween--we celebrated back in Aviano. Today we took an afternoon walk around the neighborhood and tried to get more adjusted to the time change. Porter and Eli spent a lot of time playing on the floor with some of Isaac's toys. They are getting good at scooching around the blanket and reaching for toys. They look like little worms!

Gameday in Aggieland
October 30, 2010
We were so lucky that the same weekend all four of us were in town, there was a home game. Since Evan was going to SOS on Sunday, this would be his chance to see the Aggies play. We miss College Station as much as we miss anything else. We packed in family and friends and the boys stuck through it all--thankfully.
My cousin Ali wasn't going to the game that day, but she just had to meet the boys. So, she met us in the parking garage of all places! The boys picture even made it onto the Jumbotron during the game.
We weren't going to stick around after the game for Alice and Dick's tailgate, so they met us before the game so they could meet the boys.
Kelcey. Evan was able to meet Curt and Kelcey in the summer when they traveled to Germany. I was unable to travel at that point, so it had been a long time since I had the chance to give Kelcey a hug.
The normal tailgating crew: Micah, Kris, Curt, Kelcey, and the Epsteins.
Tears were shed and we screamed like little schoolgirls. The boys were asleep by the time I met up with Anne but it was so good to hug her too!
Grandpa came to the game. Janet and Ross stayed with the boys and wheeled them around so Evan and I could go to the first half of the game. Being back in Aggieland was like coming home.

I went down before halftime to see the boys. Ross' squadron reunion was that weekend so they were hanging out at their tent and it was feeding time for the little ones. We are so fortunate to be able to go to the games. Ross and Janet have great seats and we loved seeing family and friends at one of our favorite places.

Isaac and Josie-Meet Porter & Eli
October 29, 2010
We spent the next few days in Austin. We got caught up on sleep and Nana and Grandpa were able to catch up on snuggles. Isaac and Josie came over and they met the boys for the first time. That night we drove to a nearby Mexican food restaurant where we let Eli and Porter know that pizza and pasta is great, but tortilla chips and salsa is the way to live.

Welcome to AMERICA!
October 27-28, 2010
We are gearing up for our trip to the States. Evan will go to Alabama for SOS and I will spend my time between parents, in-laws, and other family and friends. As I feel that we have packed every single clothing item we own plus milk and nursing supplies, the one thing we cannot forget is the earplugs for our fellow plane passengers.
First of many feedings on the plane.


Excited. This word does not begin to describe the feeling as we walked this runway in Houston.

We had a layover in Houston before going to Austin. Grandpa drove all the way out to the airport JUST to see us and the boys. It is not a quick trip and he was so sweet to meet us and stay with us through our couple hour layover.
