What a great day. He arrived at the airport at 9:50 am on Thursday, 18 from the Rio North Brazil Mission. We are so excited to have him home with us.
Here he is coming down the walkway. I of course was crying (now there is a surprise).
Here is our sign for we had for him. This is some of our family and his friends that were there.
Me hugging my boy! He grew a 1/2 - 1 inch and lost 30 pounds.
Our family together again.
These are his shoes... he did A LOT of walking! He never complained that he needed new shoes!
We had a get together that night with some of his friends and family. It was nice to see so many people. Father's Day he spoke and he did such a wonderful job. He has grown so much, and his testimony has grown and is amazing. I'm so grateful for his service he gave to the Lord. He truly loved his mission. He has said it is the hardest thing he has ever done and the happiest he has ever been.
I'm sure you will hear more later.
