We had a wonderful welcome home from our family. The airport was full of Urmston's. Carrie and her kids even came from Utah to great us. It was so very nice to see them and also to see how many have really changed in 18 months. Off to see President Hawkins and within a very short time we were no longer full time missionaries the wonderful Badge we had been wearing over our heart for 18 months was removed. A very sad time. We would recommend a mission to all. No other expericence like it.

So good to spend some time with our good friend Jaime Williamson ( known to us as Elder Williamson for 18 months)Off to our home for a great bar-b-que and some catch up time. We were quite surprised when we found that our home had been put back togeather. We were not looking forward to putting everything back in its place.
We so appreciate all that was done for us while we served our mission. We thank you all for letters, e-mails, prayers , bill paying, medications sent, special packages filled with favorite treats, thanks for the Crisco. We know that we came away from our mission with much more than we gave.
Next came a great family reunion. Missed a few of our great family members. Jordan in Paraquay, Courtney and Brigham and the Ivins family, Nickolas and Kali. It will be very hard to have a full family reunion again. We had a great time. The cousins have such fun togeather. Having grown up without cousins it is so fun to seem them all playing and having fun. We thank you all for the time and effort which went into this special time. Candice, great shirt, Marc and Linda, such great fun with the scavenger hunt, Peter and Cooper, loved the talent show, the food was great, Jaime and the craft, great. Such fun to see the Aunts and Uncles interact with all the kids big and small. Mia and her boy cousins figuring life out.
