They are here...

Poppa & Grandma are finally here!!! We have been waiting anxiously for over a year and a half for them to come back from Russia & they are finally here! The kids heard a car coming down the driveway & were out of the door before I knew what was happening- not one of them stopped long enough to put on a pair of shoes. They brought us some great gifts from Russia! they gave us beautiful books & dolls. I got a lovely- & VERY warm Russian fox fur hat! Luckily they removed the tail that was on it for me. Gabriel got a neat wooden whistle & a stacking doll carved like a Panda. He LOVES 'Kung foo Panda' he sat on the floor playing with his toy for over an hour! He loves it! My parents settled right in. Dad took Gabe on a walk around the place. I think he was taking mental notes of all of the things that he saw that might need a little tightening, tuning or repairing. Gotta Love Dads!!!
The girls have been waiting to play games with Grandma. After putting away their gifts from Russia they got Grandma to sit down & play a game. But the girls had forgotten that Grandma is a 'Peck' after all... & has all of the luck that being a 'Peck' carries- so Grandma won the game. Darn those lucky 'Peck' genes! We feel so lucky and so blessed to have them safe and back with us!
