Believe it or not...
WE ARE HOME!!!!!!!! We arrived TODAY at 12:30. It was a looooong day and we are exhausted and we had several interesting things happen thanks to our children...I will tell you just a few...you know you are a MOTHER when you get handed every piece of chewed gum, dirty tissue and scrap of trash your children possess. AND you know you are a FATHER when you take your son to the bathroom in the airplane and the stewardess comes and asks frantically "Do you need HELP???" because your youngest son pressed the "HELP" button in the toilet...THREE DIFFERENT TIMES.
We made it, we are all here and relatively healthy (we all have colds) and the boys only had minor melt-downs.
Thanks you for all your prayers for getting us home by Christmas - they worked worked!!! We will put a few more pics up of their first US Christmas and we will see MOST of you next week! MERRY CHRISTMAS and GOD IS GOOD!

WELCOME HOME FANELLI FAMILY!
(sounds like "Good morning Fanelli Family!")
We are so excited to know that you are in the states and that Ty & Zach's first Christmas will find them surrounded by so many family members who love them already!
But...I agree with everyone else, we can't wait to get you home so that both of you and the boys will know how much their church family loves them too!
Welcome to parenthood and know that we will continue to pray for you and your new sons!
God bless and see you next week!
Love,
The Osborne family

Congratulations to you all! You've made it back with a family just in time for Christmas. What a wonderful Christmas it will be. You were in Ukraine almost as long as we were adopting our son Andrew (2 months). Now you can get into some kind of American normalcy. Hooray for all of you. I'm glad your home and a family of four.
YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I've been checking every day to see if you were home!
I'm so happy for you!

Congrats to the Fanelli family and may 2006 continue to be as blessed as 2005!!
Love you,

Updates! We want updates!! Tom and Lois, I've sure been thinking about you all since you've come home and hoping that First Month Home hasn't been too traumatic for everyone! *grin* I'd love to hear how you're doing!

Found your blog on americanexpat.com. I adopted a seven year old girl from Simferopol in April. Wondering if you adopted from the orphanage down the street from the McDonalds/Train Station?
