We have waited almost 2 years for this!! Mike and Kylie came home tonight. The day started out with Hailey running out of the bedroom shouting "MIKE AND KYLIE COME HOME TODAY!!" Then Hannah came up and together they jumped around. I have to admit I wanted to jump around too, but I knew we had a long day ahead of us! When I got home from work the girls and Kevin helped me make a welcome home sign. Hannah and Hailey loved making the sign and the anticipation built up even more(if that was possible). These pictures are a little out of order sorry.

Hannah running to give Mike a big hug!

The girls decided they wanted to hide behind the corner so they could jump out and surprise them.
Hailey was a little unsure about the whole thing when it came right down to it. When they opened the door she hide behind me! Don't worry it didn't take long for her to warm up!

The girls getting on the necklaces that Mike and Kylie gave them.

Hannah did not quit smiling she was very excited to have them back. Everyone was fighting back the tears when Hannah ran to Mike and gave him a great big hug... it was PRICELESS!! Mike and Kylie we are so glad to have you home! You were greatly missed and have made this Christmas Season a special one already! We love you!

I thought I would try and get a picture of the girls by the tree. Hannah was not a fan of the idea she had other thing to do! We are down to only 4 days until Mike and Kylie come home, and my girls are excited! They have not seen them for almost 2 years. Hannah had just turned 3 when they moved and Hailey was almost 2. They grew very close to them when they lived with my parents for a few months before they left for Australia. We had many nights that Hannah would cry to us because she missed them so much. We are very excited to have them home for Christmas!! We are not looking forward to saying goodbye again!!
