On January 16th, the cutest little brother ever, came home from serving a two year mission in Mexico. I am so proud of him. Having served a mission, I know that it is not easy. But if you serve with love in your heart, there is nothing else you will ever experience like giving over your whole life in the service of your fellow man.
Needless to say we were super excited to see him after two years, but we aren't really a poster making family. When we got to the airport though, we saw that there were plenty of families who ARE the poster making kind. We thought it would be funny to make a sign out of the tiniest peice of paper we could find. There is Kate holding our special sign.
Sweet picture of Dad and son reuniting.
He is so happy his eyes are leaking a little.
MacConnell and some dude....just kidding...I think it was another Elder from his mission who was also in his M.T.C. district.
And now for second favorite boy in this post. Samuel.
No, not this guy....that is an otter. A cheeky one at that.
We took Samuel to the Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy, and he loved it.
Here Samuel is melodramatically letting me know that he disapproves of the music on the radio. Look at the expression on his face, and he actually plugged his ears. Geez.
We went to feed the ducks at the pond behind my house, which Samuel loved. But I was afraid for our lives at one point. Just kidding, but there were ALOT of ducks converging on us.
Here he is playing with some shells. I put that necklace on him, it amused me. He gave me what for shortly after I took this picture, so I had to take it off.

Those are some cute boys. And that picture of Samuel plugging his ears makes me laugh. Delaney does the same thing to me.
I am still giddy over these pictures. They make me happy. Thanks for posting. MacConnell and Samuel are such sweet boys!
