Home Sweet Home

That's us been home for three days already. Can't believe how much we've packed into that time! My auntie Julie, gran, cousin and his girlfriend and daughter had come up from Manchester to surprise us at the airport with mum, George, Nicole & the Creightons. However the welcome party didn't go quite as planned as the flight was early and so only mum & George were there to meet us haha. The others trickled in to the airport in stages, it was quite funny! The Manchester group didn't make it to the airport at all and so just met us all at our house for tea and toast. By that time we'd been told they were coming :-D

The journey home was pretty quick but it was a night flight and I really wanted to try and get some sleep but wasn't able to.

On Saturday after arriving home, Nicole and I went to Braehead with Julie, Tom, Lowrell and Tianna for coffee and a look around. Then on Saturday night, after Laurence had picked up our new car we went for a drive to get a fish supper from our favourite chippy. Couldn't wait for one of those.

After a lovely welcome at church on Sunday we picked Vera up and went to Clare's for a Sunday roast and to see the Dearys. That was a lovely day of catching up and great food. The kids are all getting so big! They are excited about a new cousin (to add to the 21 there already is!!).

Today was for getting organised, housework, food shopping and unpacking. We also had Rosalind, Matthew and Anna over for tea before going back down to Inverclyde to pick up things we'd left in Laurence's sisters' houses that we forgot yesterday. Busy three days but very enjoyable and we are soooo glad to be home :)

The surprise visit was all too much for Tianna!
