Whirlwind

What a fun week this has been! Last Saturday, we left Budapest and had a 20 hour journey back to Houston. The kids did well and the flight was pretty easy. We were so happy to be back in the good ole USA!! We all woke up at 3:30 am Sunday morning, so we decided to go to Walmart and get some things checked off our list. So, next time you see small children at Walmart in the middle of the night, don't judge! We headed to IHOP after that - yummy American pancakes! After our breakfast we went back to our Houston home, my parent's house, and got ready for church. We were so thrilled to go back to Second and worship with our sweet friends there. What a blessing that was!
Monday and Tuesday the kids slept a little later - at least until 4:30 or 5 am. We enjoyed seeing friends and family and just hanging out. Chelsea had a special play date with lots of her friends on Tuesday afternoon - it was so sweet to hear them say how they have missed her and to see how happy they were all playing together again.
Wednesday morning we headed back to the airport and got on a plane to Orlando - Disney, here we come! It has been so much fun. We spent a few hours Wednesday afternoon at Magic Kingdom. Thursday morning we headed back to Magic Kingdom and met up with my sis and her family and my parents. Chelsea LOVES her cousins and was so happy to be with them. We got her to ride Big Thunder Mountain railroad - she loved it and it was so fun to ride with her and watch her try to hold up her little arms for the whole ride!
Friday morning we visited Hollywood Studios, then went to visit my grandparents for the afternoon. Today, we had breakfast with the princesses at the castle - all of the princesses were there and Chelsea was thrilled. After breakfast, we met up with everyone at Animal Kingdom. Tomorrow, we are off to Epcot.
It is hard to believe we have only been back for a week - it feels like longer, which is a great feeling. It is weird talking about Budapest - like it is a whole different life! In many ways, it is. The last few months have been so chaotic preparing for the move, moving, and trying to figure out day to day life in Hungary. I am so thankful we have had this time to just have fun together. There are so many cute pics for these few days - maybe I will upload some tomorrow.
