The sweetest day...

Friday morning was sort of hectic...in a good way!

We had to get all purtied up and eat our last Daddy kiss!

Someone was totally excited!
We made it on base expecting to be an hour early when I got a phone call that the plane was 20 minutes out...woohoo!

My sweet friend Hannah came to take pictures and video for us and she did a great job creating priceless memories from this day!

We waited in the pax terminal before we headed to the flightline...Riley was squealing and telling everyone how excited she was to see her Daddy!

We were able to watch the plane approach and land and then we headed to the flightline to wait for everyone to come off the plane! Riley had made a special picture for her Daddy and since the flightline is always windy I had to keep reminding her to hold on tight to it. While we were waiting in front of the plane the wind got ahold of her sign and it was off...and she was in tears. About 20 dudes ran after it and chased down her sign and saved the day! Thanks goodness!

While Riley was so excited talking about her Daddy coming off the plane, she actually got super shy once she saw him and was in his arms. She immediately said, "I made a picture for you Daddy", gave him a few hugs, and then she was in my arms hiding her face in my shoulder for about half an hour. I think it all overwhelmed her!

Here's a video I put together of us all together again!


One happy family!

Thankfully although Riley was very shy around Jason at first...he made a good move and shared some jelly beans with her!
And it was like he had never been gone!
