So my brother just returned yesterday from a 2 year mission in Sweden!! So proud of him!! We were all excited and eager for his arrival at the airport. We decided to take the welcome home sign with us...figured what better way to be greeted home than with a big sign and cheers from your family!! Now this may be a common occurance at the SLC airport but at the Tulsa Airport...yeah, not so much. At least it was a late night arriving flight and the airport wasn't that crowded so we didn't embarrass him too much.
Actually it was a touching moment to see the sweet embrace of a mother and son after 2 years of not seeing each other and only 4 phone call visits. After arriving back to the house we all followed Brandon around as he picked out the new things my dad had done to the house while he was gone. Then we knelt and had a family prayer--once again a touching moment. Then it was to the Swedish chocolate. YUMM!! YUMM!!Glad to have you back home Brandon!!!

wow I can't believe he's home ALREADy- where did time go! Glad you got to be there How exciting and fun!
I'm glad he made it home safe and sound! Wish I could have been there!
I still can't believe he was old enought to go on a mission - I still look at him as your little brother, not your little big brother. Enjoyed his talk yesterday.
Welcome Home Brandon!!! So fun that both our brothers were on missions the same time and now are home at the same time! :)
Wish I could have been there!! But I guess I will get to have him here very shortly :)
