Mikey got a hair cut before coming home. He was a big boy that day! Mikey sat in the chair and didn't cry. BUT he wouldn't let the lady wash his hair.

Last Baseball Picture
We had a great time at the last baseball game we attended. This is the last picture of us together. And it is one of the few pictures we have together with Eddie (he is holding Mikey). Muriel decided not to come since she went to the scrimmage the day before. Everyone at the game was so nice and the kids enjoyed getting to know them all. Lillian talks about the guys a lot. She tells her friends number 12 has a really cool motorcycle. Then she says number 11 is Eddie's friend and number 34 can hit the ball really hard. Lillan tells us that she likes the girl manager too.

Back in USA
We arrived home on August 25th after nearly 24 hours of traveling. We almost missed our plane in Dallas/Ft. Worth too. It was 4:30pm and we were standing in customs while the plane was beginning to board passengers. I wrangled an airport employee and his cart to help me get through customs and recheck our baggage. As I ran to the ticket counter, the airport employee looked up my gate and checked my bags for me. He yelled across the airport and told me "C28" as we ran for the esclator upstairs. I had to carry Mikey and run thru the airport with the girls running behind me. By the time we got to the plane it was 4:58pm and the flight was scheduled to leave at 5pm. The airport employee at the gate radioed the people at the plane that she was letting us come to the plane. I got there just in time to see the man outside the plane knocking on the pilot's window and yelling at him to open the door and let the missing passengers on. I apologized as we sat down since the flight crew had to start the safety demonstration all over again! Our flight was delayed by 4 minutes and our family in OKC saw the delay. They all knew it was us that caused the delay. I called my husband while running to the plane and told him we might not catch it. So, they knew we managed to get there just in time.
The time change has been harder on me than the kids. Even after half a pot of coffee, I'm dead on my feet. I didn't drive until Saturday evening since I knew I wouldn't be able to see straight. I'm worn out all day long and so very sore! I hurt all over my body- shin splints, backache, muscle cramps all over and even the muscles under my arms hurt.
The kids get tired in the afternoons and get cranky. We have had lots of crying and whining! BUT they have to go to bed at a decent hour if they plan on getting to school on time starting Monday. We visited the school on Friday to pick up paperwork and talk to the cafeteria ladies. I got the menu for August and September to see if I need to buy any gluten free groceries for Lillian. Monday will be very busy for us.
I will post the last of the pictures soon. The last few days in Korea were very busy. I had so much packing to do, English camp at the school, lots of baking to do and friends to see one last time. We enjoyed living in Incheon and miss everyone very much. So, to all our new friends we say "thank you." We hope to see you again.
