Welcome Home Scott!!

After TWO long years...we finally got Scotter back home. Whoo hoo!!

Here are all of the signs that Mom made for Scotter (some of us will remember these signs from the last time we came home to visit, she finally admitted that she often re-uses the same signs...)




















Here's the NYC skyline and lots of airplanes (none of which were Scott's, but we were hoping)






















The first sign as you enter Newark airport...welcoming you to New York/New Jersey.





















Kevin, Mom, and Kristina looking excited in the train from the parking structure over to the airport...we were all a little worried we might miss Scott's grand arrival.

















Here are "the girls" waiting anxiously, looking for any sign of Elder Smith.





















FINALLY. He arrived. Here he is hugging me. Mom is crying (of course).














Here are Mom and Jess wearing their "England" jackets, especially for Scotty...


Here's the whole fam (minus Kevin, the camera man)

Here is Elder Smith looking happy to be HOME.















More pics to come...
