Joey's Home!

Finally! After months of waiting and thousands of miles of travel Joey is home.

Having departed Guangzhou 28 hours earlier, we arrived at Dane County Airport at 7:25 am (Sunday, April 15) and were greeted by very excited Grandmas and Grandpa. The homecoming was nicely documented by MB's uncle Bill.

Our home was festively decorated both outside and in by family (thanks Jim and Emily) and neighbors (thanks to the Scotts). After donuts and juice and a little playtime, the grandparents departed. Before we returned to the house a few neighbors gathered in the driveway to welcome Joey.

After a 5 hour nap Joey and Bagheera were introduced without much reaction from either.

Joey has already settled in and has explored much of the house (including many drawers and cupboards) and has either played with or "eyed" the toys which many of you so kindly gifted to us. He is not yet sure how he feels about grass, but he's coming around!

We want to thank everyone for supporting us during the adoption process. We are so thankful for being blessed with Joey.
