About our Trip

So its been awhile since we have updated so we will do it in a few phases. The trip back east to WV was great. The flights wern't that grand but overall it was worth it. Nothing like spending a week back home. We were able to see pretty much everyone we wanted and even had time for a little bday party for Sara at her Mom's house which went really well. Everything turned out fine. As you can see by the post under this one Christmas was very fun for us at Shawn's parents. They didn't seem to enjoy the prank as much though haha. We enjoyed the rain while we were there as well.
The most stressful part about the trip may have been the very end. After sitting in the Pittsburgh airport for awhile waiting for our plane we boarded and everyone was ready for take off, but after the pilot turned the engines on, they were turned off and the pilot said we would have possibly a delay because of equipment problems. We found ourselves starting to break a sweat mainly because our layover in Cinci was 55 minutes. We were stuck sitting on the plane and finally left the runway right about an hour after we were supposed to. We landed a few minutes early in Cinci, ran through a few concourses and all the way down to our gate (which was at the VERY end) and got to the gate after the closed the doors. Luckily they were a little behind refueling so they let us on and later we got home on time. So thats our stressful story.

We definatly wish more than anything we were back there though. It made us realize how much we really miss being home and being around family and friends. Here are a few Christmas pictures from when we were back home.

Here is our Christmas Tree!!

Best Prank Ever

So upon arriving home we had our own Christmas night with Shawn's family and decided to pull a small prank on them. We had them all open a 'present' from us at the same time. They opened the wrapping paper to find a fake 1 month ultrasound that Sara had so brilliantly fixed up and put our name on to make it look very real. So here is the reactions on them thinking a baby was on the way: (blogspot wouldnt upload it so here is the link)
