The Hammonds are here!

A large chunk of our family arrived special delivery at SFO this afternoon.  Katharine, Scott, Oliver, Bethany, Jacob, and Rebecca are getting to know Walnut Creek for the next two-plus weeks.  Despite extreme jetlaggedness they even managed to dip their toes into the swimming pool this evening.  Hannah has already promised Yogurtland tomorrow, though as she'll be at work it'll be Uncle David's sanity (and credit card) that takes the brunt of that.


The long journey took its toll on some family members.


Spilling out of the bus that we'd commissioned specially to pick them up.


It's like a Biblical plague!


It has been a while since we've received a full aid package from the mother country, but here is everything you could want.  Thank you!
