Well, we arrived this morning. Everything went very well. This kids did an excellent job! The only hitch along the way was that Elizabeth, Abby and I (Rick) got sick after our leg from Chicago to London. It didn't happen until the very end of the flight...very weird...never had that happen before. Also, I felt EXTREMELY nauseous after we got our bags unloaded to our guest room. I'm not sure why, but it was horrible for the first hour. I think the ride here (Driving here is much different on the belly if you're not used to it.) right after not feeling well at the end of the last leg was a bad combination. But, all is well now. Everybody else is sleeping right now. We're supposed to have dinner with a family tonight, at 5pm. The family has four children that exact same ages as ours! I asked the children what they noticed was different so far. They noted the steering wheel on the other side (cracked up about that), the smaller bananas (about half the size) and all of the people pinching their cheeks and wanting to take pictures with them (especially Elizabeth with her blonde hair) at the airport. We'll see what else they note when they can actually see the view around the street. It was only 5:30am when we arrived. It's nice to have everything and everyone here. We didn't lose anyone and only lost the top of one container. It looks as if all the contents were still there (That's good because there were some birthday presents for the kids in that container!). The airport personnel just wrapped the box in plastic wrap. So I didn't recognize the container the first couple of times it went around.

I'm going to have to get a ticker showing me what time it is there so I can keep track. It's to hard on the brain to try and figure it out. :-) We were headed to church on Sunday night and I just became overwhelmed with the need to pray for you...wonder if it's when you all were sick. He's so Awesome to alert us when our family needs help. Praise His Holy Name. We're blessed and uplifted that you're there. We're praying for His mission to be accomplished through you. Tell your girl I said hey. Love all of you so much!
