Welcome Home

Well over a month ago on Dec. 6, Josh left home for an assignment over seas. He wasn't supposed to come home until the latter part of March. When we heard he was getting to come home early, we were all very excited. Sunday morning we all headed to the airport to welcome him home...in overwhelming Grable style!
The McIntire kids made welcome home signs.
Side note:
The other night while eating dinner, Brynn told Susan that she was going to eat a lot so that her belly would get big like Mantha's! Sweet little girl! Haha!
When we got word that Josh's plane had landed, we moved up to wait for the first sighting of Josh. After waiting for what seemed like ever, and getting odd looks from all the other people coming to baggage claim...
...we finally saw him. Shannon was a little excited to see her husband!
Next was the nieces and nephews turn to greet him. Since Josh hadn't shaved since he had left, some of the little kids were unsure of his furry face!
I was quite surprised how much you could miss someone who "slapped" you in the face with raw bacon, put soap on your tooth brush, tripped you in the middle of Walmart while wearing a skirt...and many many other "brotherly" things. But I did and I was very glad to see his furry face again!
Josh requested Mexican food so we all stopped at Chiloso for a some yummy Mexican food.
Afterwards we all said our goodbyes so that Josh could go home and catch up on some sleep!
Welcome Home Josh!
We are all so glad to have you home!
