Hope, Love, and Grace!

Today we are coming home!!  We could not be any more excited!!  We will have approximately 23 hours of travel, but we are ready to get it over with and be back home in Oklahoma with all 3 of our girls!!  I thought this shirt was appropriate for the day!!

 

We walked over to the airport and got checked in.  Grace enjoyed a ride on the luggage cart!!

 

 

We had some lunch and headed to our gate.  The Hong Kong airport is huge.  It was like an aiport with a shopping mall inside it.  Needless to say we ended up having to hurry to our gate because we did not realize how BIG the airport was!

 

 

We made it to the gate and got settled on the plane.  Here is a picture of Grace before take off!!  Sweet girl has no idea how her life is about to change.

 

 

Grace did great on the plane.  She is happy when John and I are together and she is in one of our arms.  She slept some, sat, ate, and did not have 1 fit the entire 15 hour flight!!  I am telling you this girl is amazing!!  Here is a picture when we landed at DFW.  Once we touched down on America soil she became an automatic US citizen!!  Can you tell how happy she is:)

 

 

In Dallas we headed straight to the mexican restaurant.  We had good food and I had a big unsweet tea withe ice!  Oh how I missed my unsweet tea with ice!  We had one more flight to OKC.  Grace passed out and slept the short flight to OKC.  We were greeted at the aiport with lots of family and friends.  It was AMAZING to hug our girls and see everyone at the airport.  Grace did amazing and even got down to play with some balloons showing off her big smile and laughing!  We are praising Jesus for this amazing journey he sent us on.  We are so happy to be home with all 3 of our girls!!  God is so good!!

 

 

 

 

 

We have been dreaming about this day for a long time and it was perfect!!  We can never repay the love and support we have received throughout this journey.  To everyone we want to say thank you.  We know God sent each of you to lift us up when we needed it the most.  We would not have made it without you!! Thank you for loving us so we could listen to God's call to love this precious baby girl!!  We love you Grace Mei Barnett!!
