My best friend and her hubby came over to exchange gifts which was a lot of fun ad the girls had fun playing with all their new stuff, including their new Elmo DVDs, which they are LOVING! (these were the only two photos I took..I was just busy catching up and running after three escaped little chicks!) Thank you Aunt Kim and Uncle Roger for all our great stuff!! We LOVE you!
I had decided since we really didn't have much to do, that we could go to the airport to surprise Megan and her fiancee, Julian who were getting in around 5:45pm. It's about an hour drive to the airport they were coming in at but it was well worth it to surprise her!! She never in a million years thought we would be able to come and I was so happy we were!
I met Tammy at a park-n-ride closer to her house and the highway, so it was super easy (Tim didn't want to go because the Eagle's game was on and he was not missing it). We got to the airport, parked and went in to the food court to feed the girls dinner before the plane was set to arrive. All was good. The place was empty and so nice and quiet. The girls ate and this really sweet man came up to us and gave us fifteen dollars to the girls. He couldn't believe I had triplets and asked how old they were and when I said their birthday was just yesterday, he gave them each five dollars. I so didn't want to take it but it was so sweet and he insisted! I tell ya, the kindness of others is so sweet. Never in a million years did I ever think a prefect stranger would be so kind. Bless that kind soul of his, Lord!
We were right on time and met Julian's mom and her grandson, Zach, who is just a few more months older than the girls..I think about 6 months older. He is such a sweetie.
So we went downstairs to meet the arriving passengers and within in five minutes Megan and Julian were walking to us! Megan was super surprised and happy we came to welcome her home!
We didn't have much time to visit but it was great to welcome them home for the holidays.
After searching around for our car, even after we remembered where it was...we drove home and after dropping Tammy off at her car, the girls pretty much took their turns screaming during the ride home and Mommy had to sing "the wheels on the bus..." four hundred times. Luckily for cell phones, Mommy called Daddy and he had their new Christmas jammies and bottles ready for three hungry and sleepy little girls!
My mom and my sister braved the cold to come over and we all listened while my mom read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, as she has since my sister and I were little. It was so sweet! A moment I won't forget, the girls were so patient and just layed in our arms and drank their bottles listening to the story. We then gave hugs and kisses and tucked in our little ones for dreams of sugar plums and awaited Santa's arrival!
