We made it!

We're here! It's a little past 1:30 PM.

We had delays in both Little Rock and Dallas. Then met up with Ruth and Debbie in LA! Then our LONG flight began. Wow.....15 1/2 hours! But we made it. Then to Hong Kong. Then the final leg to Vietnam.

Everything went well....with one BIG exception. My 2 suitcases are not here. These contain basically everything....for me and Isaac! Hoping they will turn up tonight or in the morning at the latest. We leave at 7:00 in the morning to go to Ninh Thuan (Isaac's province). We will finally get to see him (and Izzy) around 3:30! And GNR is Friday!

We are fixing to go out and explore the city a little bit. On the bus ride over, we got to see all the crazy traffic we had heard so much about.

Hurray, you are there! Praying your luggage arrives soon. You will be with Isaac soon - what a joyous moment it will be. So happy for you! Can't wait to see pictures of you together - you are posting pictures right? I know you just can't wait to hold him - he will be with you soon.

One of the families we traveled with arrived without their luggage as well. They found most of what they needed clothing-wise at the Saigon Center - It's just a block or two down from the Tax Center. And then dig in Ruth's suitcase for whatever else you need :)

Yeah!!! So glad to see this!!! I sure hope they find your luggage! So, I'm trying to figure out.... for Thursday at 3:30 pm, that will be 1:30 am in the morning... so when I get to work tomorrow morning you will have already seen Isaac!!! So, I'll be ready to see some pics tomorrow afternoon sometime! :)

Waiting patiently for an update. I cranked my bug infested pc up about 2 hours ago hoping I could get an update. I'm so confused on the time difference thing...guess I'll have to wait til morning. Miss you! Molly is doing great...she has found her relaxing 'lay' with her legs out behind her. I think she has realized she going to be here a while. She has taken over the couch. They were all drowned rats when I got home. Rained all day. Did you get your luggage? Man I hope so. Can't wait for an update! Hey Isaac...how's your mom makin it? Hang in there bud...you have so much to look forward to. You mom is the best!!! More love than you can ever imagine! :-) Can't wait to see you all! Cameron says, 'Hi!' too! She's as excited as I am!!!! Love you all!

I'm so excited you guys made it ok. Maybe your suitcase was too heavy and someone is still trying to lift it onto the luggage belt! :) Can't wait to see picts!

Heather said...

Hey Kim, I just read your email - I am so excited for you... I am SO glad your luggage showed up. and I am so glad you held Isaac today! I know you've waited a long time for tomorrow. You are almost there! Everyone is cheering for you back home.
