"They" being Beth, Hannah and Faith, who arrived this afternoon after an eleven hour flight from Tokyo. Dmitry and I drove up to Keller to collect Bridgette from Kirstin then headed to the airport, where Don and Anna, Beth's mother, were waiting.
It took a while, but at long last....the doors opened and there they were. 
Wish I looked that good after a nonstop flight from Tokyo. Of course, babies were exchanged as Don got to meet his youngest granddaughter for the first time, while Beth eagerly reached for her new niece:
Hannah was also pleased to make Miss Bridgette's acquaintance:
We left the airport and drove to Anna's apartment, to have dinner and visit. Here's a photo I've waited three months to take!
My poppets!
Grandpa with Faith:
And with both his sweethearts:
And me with them, too:
As Beth said, "Granny heaven!" ;^)
Here's Beth holding Faith while talking to Alex, who was already missing his girls:
Don and Dmitry sharing a chuckle over something or other:
In the big bag up there was the first gift for Faith from Nana; Faith's Uncle Dmitry took charge of assembling it:
Faith appreciated her uncle's efforts:
Of course Hannah got something too! A Dora the Explorer inflatable bed for her to use while here:
It was a lovely, lovely evening, spending time with our dear ones. If only our Alex had been there! Not too long, though, and he will be with us, too.
