Swamp Thang meets the Prairie...

Can anyone guess who took this picture?

She's here! She's here! For all you Tubre Quad fans out there, you'll be happy to know that Jac made it to Wichita safe and sound this morning. I was gonna make her hitch her way to our house, but then realized she didn't have a chance of getting picked up because she was wearing her purple and gold LSU jacket. Poor girl, she stuck out like a sore thumb at the airport in those God-forsaken colors. I know she was just trying to make it easy for me to recognize her, though, since it's been almost a year since we were last together in Phoenix. What a weather difference....it was like 28 freaking degrees this morning! BRRRRRRRR. Now, Jac wants to tell you a little about her traveling experience today. So without further ado (drumroll, please)...........I present the lovely Mrs. Torey Tubre.

Thank you Monica. We are gathered here today...just kidding. I woke up and sprung out of bed this morning...it's K-Day (Kansas Day)! I made it to the airport in record time, got checked in and headed for the security checkpoint. I removed my shoes and placed all my liquids (Listerine, shampoo, hand sanitizer, Vodka, etc., etc.) in a little Ziploc bag as instructed and proceeded to walk through the metal detector. After some questions and a barefooted full body cavity search, I was on my way to the gate for my flight to Houston. Very uneventful :) After a short layover in Houston I was on my way to Wichita! When we landed I called Moni's cell and when she picked up I said, "Boy are you in for it...I'm here!" After an awkward pause, I hear "Um, Jac...hey this is Lainie, Billy's little sister...Moni forgot her phone." What's new? That girl always leaves her phone...impossible to reach. So then I stood out on the curb and the story leaves off where Moni began above. I was so happy to see her smiling face! There were big hugs and lots of chatting on the way to the house. I snuck in a shower (wash away the airport germs) and then the babies woke up from their nap...first Danna, then Laine, then Forrest, then Pius. They are SO FREAKIN ADORABLE and the pictures and video on the blog don't do them justice! Here is what we have been up today after baking cupcakes and eating the world's largest cheeseburger that Billy brought home for us...

Since she was the first to wake up, Danna got to experience a rare 2 on 1 attention. It was just the girls. She hasn't let Jac put her down yet, either.

Jac and the kids....rough-housing and destroying the living room. I seriously think Danna might be glued to Jac. I'm having a hard time prying her off!

Throwing a little daddy into the mix!

It's Moni again.....Doesn't it just sound weird to hear Jac's voice and see the Graf babies?! I LOVE IT!

Well, we've got lots of stuff to do to prepare for the babies' birthday party tomorrow. Plus, we're leaving the kids with Grammy Vicki and Grampy Stubby tonight. They graciously volunteered to quad-sit so we could go out and get Jaclyn smashed. Just kiddin'.....she'll probably be out cold by 8:30 tonight and we'll be sticking her hand in bowls of warm water and putting her bra in the freezer :)

Thanks to Lainie and Bucko for helping out this morning so I could get ready and then go to the airport! Anyone think it's funny that Pius's lion hood fit Lainie? My kids have gigantic noggins!

Love,

The Quad Squad and Cupcake Momma's
