There was a whole load of excitement in the run up to the return of the Macfarlanes from their year in Canada. Where better to experience true hyper-excitement than at the Smithies' house! An old bedsheet, some markers and a couple of garden canes and hey presto, you have yourselves a great 'Welcome Home' banner (along with an ink-stained table)!
Lucy, Austin and Anna put finishing touches to the banner the night before the return of their cousins.
Keep it straight - they'll be here any minute! The minutes felt like hours at Glasgow airport!
Woo-hoo! They're here! You go grab your cases and we'll grab your kids. Poor Kate didn't know what had happened; Irene had to risk being arrested as she headed back to Martina and Alan to calm her down!
No need for cheesy hugs - Ben and Austin just give each other the thumbs up!
Ladies together - Eve was delighted to see Lucy and Anna
Eve gives great hugs. Not that she had much option here as I just grabbed her for a cuddle before heading back to France!
It was just fantastic to see the Macfarlanes all looking so well and well worth staying home for, although it was bittersweet for Paul and I to be seeing them for quick cuddles before heading back to Paris. We'll hopefully get to see them again before too long.

Great pictures Mag - the banner making was a good laugh and it reminded me of the delicious Priyas Palace curry which helped us along!
