HOME!

finally we are back. i have never been SO excited to see my own kitchen, bathroom, bed, etc. everything is still standing and just as we left it (even with the mail on the table -- thanks mcmullins!!).

between a long long flight from germany (on lufthansa -- seriously, the best airline i have ever flown on. EVER. between the hot towels, gourmet in-flight meals, clean bathrooms, extensive entertainment options -- i'm almost ready to move to germany just to fly on them all the time) and a delayed flight from chicago, we finally got home at 2 a.m. this morning. i had one brief meltdown in chi town when the stupid flight attendants told me my bags were too big -- but hey, you would too if you'd been awake for 24 hours. (i tried hard to stay awake the whole flight from germany.)

happy to report that my ingenious system of double-packing our four boxes of cereal worked like a charm -- no stale cereal! you better believe i've been counting down the minutes for the past two hours until trader joe's opens, so i can run down there and get some milk. YAY cereal! i have missed you. (i also already ate some peanut butter right out of the jar...something else i missed way too much.)

the comp is back up and running, so hopefully later today the photo blogging will resume. that is, after i finish catching up on tv (PR, survivor AND the office??? i missed so much! and pushing daisies starts on wed.!!), watching football, painting my nails and a bunch of other things i have missed out on for the past two weeks.

i love pasadena and i am SO happy to be home!!

Yaaaaay! Glad you're back! Way to stay awake that whole flight... but seriously, trans-atlantic flying is so fun!! I think Tim and I each watched like four movies when we did it.

YAY--you're back! Nothing like being back in your own bed after a long trip.

Welcome home!!

I'm happy you're home too! But I'm glad you had a fun and great trip (aside from being cold, that is :) )
