there goes the savings!

So Joe has been off to the states for his youngest brother's wedding. (Congrats to Max and Natalie) He had no problem taking the "Freedom Bird" or "Patriot Express" (free flight for military) there, but he was one person away from making on the flight back!!!! I stayed up until 3:45 am to get him a flight home. It used up a HUGE chunk of our savings to do so, but he will be home tomorrow night. Even though we had to pay for a flight home, it is worth it to have him here with us as soon as possible! We love him and are happy to see him come back!!!
