I realized that I hadn't posted about this important event yet! Brian returned from his missionary service in the Arizona Tempe Mission on July 12th at 1:30 pm. It was a very fun day. We just barely made it there as he was walking out into the crowd of people. His flight came in early...which we had learned after checking online, but as we were leaving, Dad noticed the tire was really low in the van so had to fix that, then I had to stop to a bathroom on the way (too much excitement) so we walked in scanning the people coming out of the door and I saw him so raised up my sign so he could see it!! He was just starting to think we weren't there yet. Whoowh.
Mike arrived in town the night before. He was recording it all live on his video recorder, so some of the family got to see what was happening.
Getting home
One of the first things we did was Skype Lisa and Chris since it was really really late there.
After being home for about an hour, we drove an hour to meet with the Stake President for his release....the same place he was set apart two years earlier. Both were special occasions.Back at home, Brian got comfortable and we Skyped the rest of the family. ( Love that Skype)
A very Happy Time!
