March 15 - HOME AT LAST!!

There is no thrill quite like the thrill of welcoming home a missionary as he returns from faithful service.  The anticipation builds as you wait in the airport terminal (we had "Flat Matt" with us, wearing a sign that said "Coming Soon in 3D").

You join other missionary families, and see their excitement and joy as their son comes down the escalator, and you impatiently wait your turn.  Then, FINALLY, you see him!  His face is glowing with joy and eagerness, and you wish the escalator would move faster.  Mom breaks away to get the first hug.  But there are enough to go around - the hugs are sweet and the tears are plentiful.

Sarah had a fun announcement for her brother.  He caught on pretty quickly!

WELCOME HOME, ELDER KENISON!!  WELL DONE, GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT!  WE LOVE YOU!
