Grandma & Grandpa Home!

After serving faithfully for 18 months, my parents are home from their mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They lived in Moscow, Russia and served the Eastern European area (16 countries). They were able to travel quite a bit and helped with the humanitarian and welfare efforts for those countries. My mom has kept a wonderful blog of their mission http://www.irelandsmission.blogspot.com/. We are grateful for their example to serve and are grateful to have them home as well.

Grandkids waiting at the airport for Grandma and Grandpa to arrive.


Here they come!

Getting ice cream treats at Leatherby's after the airport.

Grandpa was more impressed with the cold water than the ice cream.
It had been a long time since he'd had ice cubes!

We spent Thursday evening at Ryan and Tani's house and then Friday evening at ours. (I only have pictures from Ryan's.) Mom and Dad left for home early (3:30am) Saturday morning. Their body clocks hadn't adjusted yet and they decided to leave whenever they woke up.
