Welcome home Elder Jeff!

My brother came home from his mission in Tampico Mexico on Monday night! We are so glad he's home! Two years is a long time! He looks great! He's a little skinnier, tanner and taller. Poor guy had to hang out with us crazies all week. I'm sure it was a rude awakening. Welcome home Jeff!

He worked super hard and had a great mission. I don't think he wanted to leave!

Mom got the first hug, of course.

To celebrate we had a fiesta back at home. All of the kids wore sombreros and played with maracas.

Can't have a fiesta without pinata!

Jeff likes Red Robin we so went there for lunch one day. He says American food tastes bland!



Yesterday we went to Bear Lake. It was nice and warm and the kids loved to play in the water.

Actually, Ellie liked the sand better!

All four of us swam out into the lake until we could barely touch, but it was too cold so we came back. It was tons of fun to spend time with my family!

That is so exciting to have your missionary come home. He is so cute too, and Nicole is single:)
