Elder Dustin, or should I Zach, is officially back!!!! Last Wednesday we headed to Idaho Falls to pick him up! He had missed a connecting flight so he didn't end up getting in until almost 9:30 so we had some time to kill. First we met up with Tyson and Madalyn at target then hung with them and the kids there and at sportsmans. After that we had a pit stop at the park in IF that surrounds the river and falls. I had never been there. It was really pretty!
Once we got to the airport we had a little more waiting...

| Isn't he just the cutest! He was ALL over the place! |
Then the time was FINALLY here! He was one of the LAST people off his very small flight! It was driving us nuts. But then finally he was home!!! We sure missed this kid! He is so much fun to have around!

| You can't see him but he's coming down the escalator |
 |
| There he is!!! |
 |
| Sophie wasn't too sure about Uncle Zach for the first day but warmed up real quick! |
 |
| Lots of Hugs!!!! |
 |
| Of course, we had to go straight to B Dubs per the missionary's request! |

We spent the next week in Victor hanging out with family. Tyson and Maddy stayed because she was graduating and of course Zach reported his mission that Sunday in their ward. There were SO many people there because another boy was giving his farewell talk and there were a bunch of girls visiting a nearby ranch. It was nuts! But Zach did SO well. I couldn't have been more impressed with the changes I saw in him. It was truly incredible and testimony building. After the talk most of us headed home to get his big lunch ready. Christopher grilled up a whole bunch of hamburgers and there was tons of salad, veggies, chips and desserts. I ate SO much food! haha
The rest of the week was mostly just hanging out, enjoying each others' company. It was so great to be around our cute little niece and nephew. They sure love their Uncle Christopher! We did hang out at the lake for a little bit one of the days which was fun of course! And celebrated Zach's birthday but I don't have any pictures of that.
Tuesday we watched the kids during maddy's graduation then met them up in the campus garden's for pizza and yummy cake her mom made. It was so exciting to be a part of it and see how maddy was to be done! I sure remember the feeling! haha So proud of her!
It was so great to be with everybody and just hang out and have company in the days while Christopher worked. Definitely glad to have our RM back and some more family time coming this summer! The Dustin family reunion is up next in a week!
Thanks so much again for all your guys help a few weeks ago! I wish we could see you guys more often! Hope you all had fun at the Dustin reunion! We miss ya! :)
