TONY'S HOME !!!

Tony arrived home on Saturday the 27th. It is so good to have him back! Even if it's only two weeks .... we're gonna enjoy every minute of those two weeks.

We were both giddy to see each other. We had a great turn out at the airport. Deedra and the 3 kids, Colby and Krista and Nephi, Stillman and Michelle and the boys as well as Melissa and Nathan and kids were all there to welcome him home. Of course Mom and Dad Norton rode over with me. After getting Tony's things we all went to Chuck O Rama and ate lunch and had a good visit. Well as good as ya can when we're all together spread out from one end of three tables to the other! ha ha
After we split up and went our separate ways, Tony and me and Mom and Dad stopped at RC Willey to see Phillip. Had a nice visit then we took the folks home and we came hone and had Christmas!!

Tony was so tired he could hardly keep his eyes open. # days of flying and waiting for flights can wear a person out!

Tony brought back some cool things for me. This is an elephant carved from stone. He gave me a brass lamp, a brass camel, a carved recorder and a really cool puzzle jewelry box. It was so fun to finally share Christmas.

We have been busy visiting family and friends. We got up this morning and went on a 4 1/2 mile walk and now we are going to pick up some things Tony needs and then to his folks home for dinner with them and his aunt and uncle. Will probably visit some more kids tonight. We decided to go to them one on one so we can really visit. We saw Tammy and Chris and Katie last night as well as one of our home teaching families.

A lot to do in a short two weeks!
