Alyssa is HOME!!!!

After serving an 18 month mission in the Californit San Jose Spanish Speaking mission, my little sister, Alyssa is finally HOME!!!! The kids were beside themselves with excitement after Halloween, so we decided to make a chain. It was about 45 links long, and faithfully every day, a link was removed. Here we are with 5 days left!

Here we are at the airport on the kids most favorite part of the entire airport-- the moving sidewalk. I can't tell you how many times they went back and forth on that thing! Thanks to Grandma Bell and Grandpa Harmon for taking them!

Here we are waiting at the bottom of the escalator for her to come down! We are all so excited!

At this point- the view screen on my camera had broken and I was taking all of these blindly. So, no close up, but you can still see her! She's got a huge smile on her face!

The kids are so excited to see her! We are so glad she's home and safe. We just had her homecoming on Sunday. She is so inspiring and a wonderful example. We LOVE YOU ALYSSA!!! Welcome home, sis!!!
