Our little prunes and a nice Surprise!

Well today was another one of those days we didn't do a whole lot. We were hoping to hear from our Rep. today and didn't want to be gone for long. After breakfast the kids wanted to go in the pool (bathtub)again. So about 10:30 they got in. Stefani was only in for about 10 min and at 12 Leidy got out but then rejoined John about 2:30 as he had stayed for the entire time. He loves to show off his pruny hands and feet and thinks it is the funniest thing. At 3:30 we got a phone call. It wasn't exactly the phone call we were waiting for, but it was welcomed with much excitement. The front desk called to say we had a package. I went down to get it and it was huge! It was from Jim's work. You guys are awesome!!! SO, I finally got the kids out of the bath after 5HRS by telling them that a gift (Regalo)was here for them!! Their little eyes widened and big smiles came across their faces. The box was full of all differnt kinds of candy, and games and coloring books and stuffed animals, t-shirts and chips. The kids were SO excited and kept saying WOW to each thing. They are so cute! :) Thanks you guys at TNT so much!! What a great surprise!
We went to the wonderful Crepes and Waffles for dinner and ice cream. This restaurant is a must to everyone coming down here. I am addicted to their ice cream and their dinners are great! We then came back where the kids went into the bath again for just 45 mins this time. They are in bed now and we are hoping to sleep well tonight!

Oh, and I finally called our rep and she didn't have good news. Now she says maybe we will hear something tomorrow or next Monday. Last week she was saying we would deffinaltly hear something by Thursday or Friday. So please pray that we hear something tomorrow. We would LOVE to come home next week.

What a great surprise! I am praying that you hear good news tomorrow! I'm ready for you to be home. Although today was NOT the day to be home-YUCKY weather out near your place.
I love that they "swim" for hours. They are going to LOVE the pool at home.

I love seeing them in their TNT shirts. So cute!! They have no idea the great fun that's in store for them when they get home and get to have sparklers and their very own fireworks shows!! My niece Emma asks "Uncle Ryan" for a fireworks show just about every night during the summer. He usually complies with some sort of ground based something at least once a week. Christian is not a big TNT fan. He will only watch fireworks from inside a car or from inside the house. He hates the noise! Christian does think the warehouse is an extremely exciting place with all of it's big boxes, forklifts, and trucks.
As Ryan would say, "TNT is a great place to be!"

What a nice surprise to break up your day. 5 hours in the tub! I've seen fingers and toes prune up, but were there whole bodies pruned?! They are so precious, glad to hear you are all doing well. We'll be praying for some good news soon!
