After six long months of deployment Daddy finally made it home! We are thrilled to have him back in our arms again. Thank you for all of your prayer support and encouragement during this challenging time. God has faithfully sustained us once again. I am always amazed at how God draws Matt and I closer to himself and closer to each other during deployments. Though I dislike every minute of Matt being at sea, I am always thankful for the growth it brings. Now we just have to get all of the "stuff" from the ship reorganized in the house, so we can have this baby!

...waiting...
We waited for the ship to arrive and then for Daddy to walk off. It took about three hours from the time we got there until Daddy was finally with us! It was a really hot and long morning! I was afraid the boys would have no enthusiasm left by the time we saw him, but they were so happy to see their Daddy, they forgot how hot and tired they were! Thankfully! 
So happy to have him off the ship!
Uncle Casey was able to join Daddy on the ship for a week, for the "Tiger Cruise". We did some explaining before hand, so the boys would understand why Uncle Casey was coming off the ship too!
Back home and together as a family! Thank you God for bringing Daddy home safely!

WOW! I had a lot of catching up to do on your blog! I'm amazed that you have found time to post all of those pictures. (You look amazing, by the way!) It was very fun to see your mom at the coast for a few days. I wish it could have been longer. SO glad Matt is home with you guys!!! :)
