Howick's Coming Home

Last night I got to go see David Howick and his new son, James, come home from Ukraine.  So fun!  There was a really nice crowd there of family and people that have known the Howick's thoughout their whole process of adoption.  Since it was kinda late in the evening I just went by myself.  It would have been nice for Ira to have people to talk to, but I didn't get home until after 10:30pm so I'm glad I didn't take the girls.  It was so nice to just visit with everyone!  I love David's wife, Eldie.  Such a sweetheart.  It was really nice to see Kassing's and Garrett's and Andreas and his girls and such too.  It was a much needed hour away from home. :)

He was such a trooper and smiled for all the pictures.  This is how he really was though. :)
