Dave Arrives!!!

So this morning seemed to last forever!!  Dave's plane wasn't to arrive until 2pm.  I asked Kaia if she was more excited about Uncle Dave coming or Santa coming... she said Uncle Dave.  What a great niece!!

Found this butterfly in the yard this morning.  So big and so beautiful.

While we waited for Dave's plane we had a soda.  Kaia has never had an entire soda to herself before but made her way through most of a Fanta.  She had the tongue to prove it.

And FINALLY Uncle Dave is home with us.  Good flights except... in Bangkok they told him he may not be able to get into the country because 'his passport was not valid for 6 months after his departure date'.  They finally let him board the plane but he had to sign a waiver that they took no responsibility if he was not allowed to enter Tanzania.  Poor guy.  He stressed out for the rest of his journey until, without a second look, he was easily and quickly waived passed security.

But most importantly his is SKINNY!!   He has lost 25 kilos in the last 8 months!!  Incredible!!  I will post some before and after pics soon.

Blog entries may a bit shorter the next few weeks but we will try to keep posting cute shots of Dave bonding with the family.
