And We're Off!

The time for us to join David in Korea finally arrived, and we left Tucson International early Friday morning. I am so thankful to my brother-in-law and sister-in-law for flying down last Wednesday to see us off and to take the pickup and some miscellaneous things back to Nebraska with them! It was a lot easier on the nerves not having to get to the airport and unload all of our bags by myself.

As you can see, Grace wasn't the least bit excited to be on our way.

They toted their own carry on luggage, and thought they were super cool doing it.

When we found our gate we saw that there was a 2 hour delay.

In this instance I was relieved - we had not had breakfast, and if our flight would have been on time we wouldn't have had lunch either. It turns out that we got 2 meals and a snack on the flight to Incheon, but I did not know that at the time (but that's okay because the first meal didn't look or smell very appetizing).

Looking down at our gate.

They really don't look all that happy to be going to see their daddy, do they?

The flight from San Francisco to Incheon was really uneventful - praise God!! I had packed a ton of DVDs, crafts, coloring books, books and games to keep us busy. Each of them did a little bit of a craft, and they watched a movie, but other than that they either sat quietly or slept. I was very proud of both of them. It wasn't until about an hour before we were scheduled to land that Tristan asked why it was taking such a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long time. And for a 12 1/2 hour flight that's not bad!

Now there's a couple of kids who were happy to finally see their daddy!
