We are finally home; we got home on Monday (California time) and have been trying to adjust to the time ever since. After not sleeping for 2 days we came home, got in our bed for a good nights sleep, and my Sammers woke up with the stomach flu and has been sick ever since. I found out that three days without sleep makes me a mean and grumpy person. Last night I slept until 1:00am, I woke up, and stayed awake until 3:00am. My body was thinking it was time to eat, but I stayed strong and did not eat; thinking that somehow by being hungry it would help me to get over jet lag.... not really sure why this made since in the middle of the night, but it seemed logical at the time.
Today we took Sam to the doctor. The doctor seemed to think that Sam is on the upswing, and so it was pretty much a wasted trip. I am praying for him because this sickness has wiped him out, and I hate seeing him so sick. Natalie on the other hand is happier than I have seen her in a long time; it is so good to see her silly once again. My big kids are visiting their old school, talking to their friends, and generally having a great time. I got my hair colored yesterday, and once again look as though I'm in my thirties (instead of my 50's), I can't believe how much grey I have!
I just wanted to update you all on the happenings of the Westfalls, and also to ask you to pray for my Sammers. Talk to you soon.

Praying for Sam. Cassie made my week yesterday when I saw her at the school! She was literally beaming and gave me a big hug! What a sweetheart.
It was so great to see you and the family tonight, Julie. All of you look wonderful and the kids are just beaming (including cousins and friends)....oh.........and sisters and parents. In other words...EVERYONE is happy you are home!
Candy is so right!!! EVERYONE is happy you're home!!!
I'm praying you get turned around in your time soon. I know being up with Sam made your jet lag worse. Hopefully, this weekend will be the turn around for you.
It's absolutely wonderful having you back in Modesto. We get the seven oldest grands for the weekend. It's going to be a weekend of much noise and laughter. I can't wait!!!!
Susie and I are so grateful you are all home safe. Seeing you last night was awesome and we pray your time here is sweet. You all look so wonderful and we're looking forward to spending some time together. Blessings to you! ~ Scott
It was wonderful seeing Tom in church today, Julie! We can't wait to see all of you. The girls are especially looking forward to seeing Natalie, and have been praying for her, that she won't be scared of the bugs in your classroon!
