They’re here!

Mom, Dad, Benjamin Anna and The Alex Sluk family all arrived AHEAD OF SCHEDULE this morning and were already through customs by the time we got to the airport.  My parents and I had a 2:00 flight to L’viv, so we stayed at the airport and caught up on events, looked at pictures, read books, and anything else to pass the time.  I started to get a little impatient when the flights leaving after us were allowed to check in before us, and no one was giving an explanation to why that was. Finally, about 40 minutes before our flight was scheduled to leave they started the check-in process to L’viv.  We ended up leaving an hour late, and after a 1 1/2 hour flight on a very aged plane we arrived to my town with one less piece of luggage that we had hoped. They promised to deliver it tomorrow around lunch time, so we will have some manditory rest time at home until it comes. Please pray that we have no problems getting my mom’s suitcase. Thanks to all who prayed for a good flight for the group. I also read tonight that the Steele family arrived safe and sound in America, and I know they appreciated your prayers as well.
