Welcome Home!

Nathan arrived home and it couldn't have been more memorable. Here are the highlights...

• Anne and William brought balloons and everyone cheered when Nathan appeared from the airport.
• Anne was the first to hug Nathan and it looked like she wasn't going to let go and let others hug him.
• The airlines lost the luggage of all the missionaries coming on Nathan's plane.
• Mike and Kara drove from Virginia and arrived just in time to make it to the airport.
• Nathan worked so hard his last week as a missionary that his feet need medical attention.
• William's camera was only taking fuzzy pictures.
• Nathan rode home in style in Anne and William's new truck.

Announcement Nathan's home coming

Nathan will arrive home August 9th at 6:20 pm Anyone reading this blog is invited to the airport. He will be coming from Dallas on American Airlines. Oh what a celebration we will have. We are so excited to see Nathan and very pleased with his missionary work. It is one week from tomorrow. Or if you are counting days it is 8 days. Willy said it is too early to count hours. I know the last 24 hours, he will probably call me every hour for the count down. I do want him to finish strong, but my heart is about to burst out of my chest when I look forward to that wonderful time when I see him again. Love MOM

The Smaller Aly

My Aly and I were arguing about whether she should be able to go to a birthday party Malia was invited. Finally she said, "Well, how bout my birthday come and that big Aly can come to my birthday?" I said, "That would be nice but she lives far away in Utah." Aly said, "Aww, well her can drive here!"

All I need are a few friends and that river.
