Curtis' Homecoming

Curtis got home March 16. We were nervous about him getting home because he had to fly from Busan to Tokyo...at the time Tokyo's airport was kind of crazy because of the earthquake and the radiation issues. The church ended up flying him straight from Busan. yay!

He came in around 4 pm. We all made some fun signs...I'm not sure if mine really says "welcome home" but Curtis understood it.

The boys broke the rules and met him upstairs before he came down to the rest of us.

So cute

Shawn filmed the occasion.

Can you believe it has been 3 years and 3 months since we were all together? Way too long!

Shawn and my Dad.
A poor waiter dropped a whole tray of waters down Shawn's back! Poor Shawn. But it was the waiters first day so we felt so bad for him. We did get a free meal out of it so Shawn didn't mind!
Mom & Curtis
No more counting down!
As soon as we walked into my parents house Curtis asked if he could lay on the carpet. I guess they don't have carpet in Korea.

After Curtis was officially released some of his friends came over for a bit.

Homecoming Talk
Sunday March 20th

Curtis gave a great talk. He really has grown up so much. He loved his mission and learned so much from it. It has been so fun to hear stories. Spencer also spoke right before Curtis so it was extra special. Um, except for when Spencer said "its fun to have everyone home again...except for angela". Little punk!

Ashley and I had to pose for a couple of pictures before everyone rushed in for the Open House. It was crazy. My dad counted over 90 people at the house...and there were a bunch of families that couldn't even make it after the talk.

I love that my brothers have such good friends that like to hang out with all of us...or at least they pretend to! They always make fun of me for blogging...yet they all read my blog so!?!

Curtis brought this awesome little storybook home from Korea called "Who Pooped on my Head?". It was a big hit! Its pretty disgusting!

Shawn was such a trooper the whole weekend. I'm lucky to have him (:

My shoes were killing my feet by the end of the day. Charity tried them on and we were all surprised by how well she could walk in these 5 inch heels!

I guess everyone in Korea always makes the peace sign for pictures...so they thought we had to do it too...

I love my brothers! It's so good to have them all home! Now Spencer will be leaving in just two years :( I'm just not going to think about it for a while.

My whole family!
