Back in the Good Ol' U. S. of A.

We are back in the Great State of Washington!

We got in on Friday May 29th, at 9:00 AM. Our flights were fine. Mark slept the entire way from Tokyo to Seattle, as I did not... So uncomfortable. However, they werent horrible flights and we made it here safely. Friday as a HUGE day for us.... we got to meet new family members, reunite with others, indulge in much anticipated items, etc... here are just a few pictures from today and yesterday!

Much Anticipate Non Fat Vanilla Iced Latte at Starbucks! They had it early then expected too. I thought I would have to wait until Seattle, but sure enough Nagoya, Japan came through!

Seattle is Freezing! When we flew in on Friday the current temp. was 62 degrees. I know that is warm for this area, and especially after the winter they had, but my goodness. My toes are still numb. I think it is going to take Mark and I some time to aclamate.
Something Saipan does not have, Traffic Jams... After 10 months of no stopping and waiting, it was kind of exciting to fly down the highway at 70 mph and have to slam on the breaks to stop and wait! =)
KID TIME! Friday after arriving we went to Julie and Robs home (Marks middle sister) took some naps and then were greeted by 2 nieces and a nephew! Allison, Sadie, and Grant... and their Mama Angela! It was so great to get big bear hugs and kisses. We missed you guys!
After hopping in the Van with them, we went to Wendy's where we met Rob, Julies husband, and Mya! Our first time to meet her! She was due 2 days before we flew to Saipan, however, she waited to make her arrival two days after we left! She is a hoot! and so stinkin' cute!
Uncle Mark with Sadie and Mya!

2nd long awaited indulgance, Strawberries! They dont even have mold on them! AND it was 2 boxes for $5.00! WAHOOOOOOOO.
Marko and I excited to be back home for awhile, and enjoying the Seattle Chill Sunshine!
Julie and Mya, Suz and Trent.
Today, Saturday, I got to cuddle up with our newest added family member, Trent Daniel. He was born March 28th, so he is only 2 months old. We met him yesterday for the first time too! Oh and is he adorable.... Today we got the chance to bond, cuddle and nap... I could do that forever!

Trent Daniel, now known to Uncle Mark and Aunt Brittany as Mr. T.
Tomorrow is Sunday, which is weird, it really should be Saturday for us, and we are obviously still a little messed up from the time change, but we are loving being home... Tomorrow we head to church, and the whole Sawyer family will be there to see Little Miss Mya Papaya dedicated.... what a sweet moment!
Then on Monday it is "Take me out to the Ball Game!" with the Sawyer family! Mariners, here we Come!
