Welcome Home!!!!

They made it home!!! Sam's parents have been serving in the Marshall Islands for the last 21 months. They flew in to the Salt Lake airport on December 10th...Which was cooincidentally Grandma's Birthday!!!!This was everyone waiting ever so patientlyHere they come!!! Grandma's face says it all!! She was so happy to see everyone!They looked so festive in all their Leis!!Hugs and tears all aroundEllie getting re-aquainted with Grandma...she was only a year when they left. She warmed up to her super quick....
Ellie was a little unsure of Grandpa but was giving him hugs and kisses before he left

Grandpa's biggest weakness and the thing he missed the most - Potato Chips!!!
This was an Elder that served with Grandpa & Grandma. He was from SL so he came to the airport to see them.
So where did Grandma choose for her birthday dinner??? BURGER KING! They missed being able to have burgers and fries like here in the United States.
Grandpa enjoying every bite!

Daxton got creative with his BK crown

Ellie loved hers!
After dinner Grandma wanted to go to the temple grounds to see the lights. You would have thought that she would have froze after being in the 95 degree weather for almost 2 years, but she was in her highest glory to see snow.

The temple grounds were amazing
The kids were freezing...Kami wanted nothing more than to go home.
Thank heavens for big cousins! Welcome home Elder and Sister Randall !!!!
We missed you!
