WAITING PATIENTLY FOR OUR ARRIVAL

We were greeted by many family and friends at the Boise airport and it was so great to see them all!! Especially Kaleb, Lucas and Chloe who we missed terribly while we were gone!! But they had great fun staying with Wayne & Pernille for a week, my Mom and Paul for a few days, and Dave and Hester for a few days. We were able to see and talk to them on the computer with web cams & talked on the phone almost everyday which helped a TON! But of course we are so glad to be home and all together again with Gracie!!

THE NEW RAINSBERRY FAMILY OF 6!!!

GRACIE MEETING EVERYONE AT THE AIRPORT

WEDNESDAY, 7/25/07; BOISE AIRPORT

After 3 flights and two airport layovers totalling over 20 hours we FINALLY arrived in Boise!!! Gracie did really great on all of the flights especially for the fact that we had to wake her up at 5:00 am the morning we left Guangzhou. She slept about 8 or 9 of the hours in the way of naps. Scott and I got a few hours of sleep in the way of naps. So, of course we were all exhausted when we arrived but ecstatic to be home and see all our family and friends at the airport!

BREAKFAST AT OUR HOTEL

Gracie loves to put her feet up wherever she is at! We have many photos of her like this. You can see the Koi pond behind her. It is a very beautiful setting and quite the spread on the breakfast bugget tables! There was raw salmon, rice, noodles, but we stuck with the Amerian options of bacon, toast, omeletes, french toast, and fresh fruit. We have gotten quite used to & spoiled by the wonderful breakfast buffets!

EMMA & GRACIE ON THE INFAMOUS, WHITE SWAN HOTEL RED COUCH

This was too funny! Gracie had actually been sitting there for about 5 minutes just fine. Then, when Emma came and was not happy after a few minutes Gracie decided she should probably start crying too!
