Home Again

Hi everyone! I made it back in one piece and just in time to see Emily walk down the aisle. She looked incredible and had the sweetest backyard wedding. I balled when I saw her and then Tom broke down and soon the whole place was passing around the tissues. It was a great moment! I'm so proud of her and she looks so happy. I got to see a bunch of people I hadn't seen for awhile, it's too bad I was mostly incoherent and couldn't stay for very long. I managed to stay up until about 9pm and then crashed. I wish the sleep was a little longer lasting - I was awake again at 3am. So Ohayo-gosimase (good morning)! It is so nice to be home and with my family. Aaron and I chatted all the way from DTW to GR, I wanted to sleep but just couldn't stop talking to him it was so nice to see him again. Mom's been feeding me melon this morning which is just soooooo delicious. Did I mention that fresh fruit is an expensive commodity in Tokyo and that I haven't had any in 5 weeks. It's lovely stuff and I am so grateful to live in Michigan. For someone who hated growing up in boring ol' Michigan, I sure do love it now. I'll post a pic of the wedding when I get home to Ann Arbor and can download photos and all that stuff. Glad to be back and will continue to keep everyone posted.
