The kids and I made it safe and happy to VA ! Chase and Savy were super good on the plane ride. It was long. but flying is so much easier than a long drive. When we first saw Greg waiting for us at the airport, the kids and I didn't recognized him. I think the kids didn't recognize him because he was wearing his uniform and Greg is a lot thinner so his face has changed a little. It has been an amazing weekend.The kids can't stop talking to Greg. They keep telling him "I missed you dad" "I love you dad." They have been so happy here with their dad. On our way up to Charlottesville, we drove by the Washington temple. I thought it was cool because you can see the temple from the freeway over all the tress:
I'm writing this blog way early. I can't adjust to the time change:) My sleep pattern is all weird. The kids have adjusted after waking them up super early one morning.
It's going to be special because we will be there for his graduation. Mom, dad, and my mom will be there too. They will fly in on the 29th. After the graduation, Greg will have 4 free days. We will be exploring Washington DC. Then Greg will leave for Oklahoma on Oct 3rd. For the first month Greg was away the time went by slow. It felt like he was gone forever. But my visit up there in August made the time go faster.
One of my fears is Savy crying her head off because she's scared during take off. 
Oh I hope they can make it on a 5-hour flight. Wish me luck!
One morning he wanted to be a mummy.
Here he is with his gingerbread house. He worked on it everyday by adding things on to it:
Yesi, my sister, made this cute cake. She is very talented with cake decorating:
Aren't these the most adorable baby shower centerpieces(made out of diapers, towells, and other things Jacob will need):
This one was my favorite:
I was in charge of the games. This game was my favorite one that we played. You had to carry a baby and a cell phone and try to get as much clothes you could in 30 seconds and put it in a basket. It caused lots of laughs.
So we went to Chuck E Cheese they had a good time playing and playing. 
Mammy came with us. It was great because Savy had her all to herself. The kids playing inside the tunnels:
Later that night for FHE grandpa BBQ'd some yummy chicken. After that we watched a church cartoon video on David and Goliath.
Thinking about our move coming up this December reminds me to spend lots of time with family now. I do have promises from Greg's family that they will come out and visit us. So I hope it does come true. We will try to come back home too but we don't have any idea when. My visit to La Salva was special because Chase, Savannah, and I spent most of our time with Diane. So we got to know her a lot better. It was fun spending time with her. She's a amazing person.
For two mornings, Mike made the kids and I a super breakfast. I also got to get to know him. That was special too. On Friday night, grandma Carole had a really good dinner for us. She's really a good hostess. I got to talk with aunt Diane's children, Greg's cousins, and their partners. It was just a fun night. Their grandson Woody played for hours with Chase and Savy without stopping. It was fun watching them laugh, play and jump. We walked down to the beach one day. Here's Savy in a stoller that Diane let us use when we walked up to Carole's house:
Chase and Savy played a lot in Carole's backyard. Chase said that it was "a forest." Diane brought down a tent, tables, and chairs for them to play in. They loved that. Chase learned how to climb up a tree out there in the forest. He was proud of himself. He even let me take his picture doing it:
Here is Chase watching a dvd inside mom's sun-shade-thing for the front window. Chase said it was his house inside there:
