Daddy!

We went to the airport to pick up Bruce on Friday (8/6)....here's how it went:

1st we checked out the luggage carousels, I had to convince them that they were not merry-go-rounds since both kids wanted to go for rides. I didn't think that security would appreciate 2 kids going round and round with the luggage.
The we found some open seats, and did some more waiting and people watching. Pretty sure that anyone and everyone was told 'Hi'. Andrew also pointed out everyone that was really tall, had a wheelchair, walker, cane, or that he thought needed to be pointed out. We're working on that....I'm guessing it's a little bit of payback from the fat guy at the auction incident I put my parents thru when I younger.
Then we saw on the screens that the plane arrived so the kids moved onto watching everyone thru the glass.
Unfortunately the plane landed at a very busy time so there wasn't a portable walkway available for a bit, which meant there was no way to get people off the plane...which meant we went back to walking around the baggage area....then it happened....we turned around and Jenna spotted Bruce. Both kids did an all out run down the walkway to him- it was adorable.
Andrew, our little helper, loved pulling the suitcase along:
There were lots of hugs from Jenna, she barely let Bruce put her down (I think she missed her Daddy):
Once out in the ramp, the questions started; what kind of plane, did you get to watch movies, and of course - did you bring us anything?

Both kids got some adorable panda bears:

Jenna got a China doll (made out of wood):

Andrew got a Twins jersey (he's been asking for one):
