Elder Jones is back!

We have had a busy week but it has been one that we have been looking forward to for awhile. On Friday we all went to Salt Lake to be together with our family and wait for the arrival of Elder Jones. We went to the zoo and were so glad that the rain stopped while we were there. We had so much fun looking at and being the animals and the boys and Olivia had so much fun playing together. It was a beautiful day and we were mostly just glad to be with each other. We spent the day having fun and then went to eat and then to the hotel to wait for Mac to arrive at the airport. He didn't get in until 8:25pm so we watched the Jazz game and had fun getting aquainted with Olivia, Bryce, and Tydon. Some of us were seeing these new babies for the first time. We then all shuttled over to the airport and waited for Mac to arrive. We had a big sign with his picture on it and we knew when his plane arrived because the people coming down the escalator would tell us," He's on the plane we saw him," and another said,"he is at the very back of the plane, He's coming!" So that made us even more excited to see him. I don't think there is a more exciting day in the life of my children than seeing them walk down the steps to greet his family after being gone for 2 years, the glow on their face is priceless. I even have to stop and watch missionaries I don't know when I am in the airport because it is so fun to watch. We were all excited to see him and give him our big hugs. Welcome back Mac, we are glad to have you home!!
