Bubba's Homecoming!

My brother Brian (a.k.a Bubba) came home from Spokane, WA where he is in the Air Force. The boys have been anxiously awaiting his arrival and were good sports about being put off a day due to weather. Finally last night he arrived around 6 pm. We were all at the airport, sign in hand, to welcome Bubba home. He will be home for about 10 days and we all look forward to visiting with him over that time. Here are quite a few pictures from the visit last night, the boys had so much fun!

Here we all are waiting for him to come around the corner.

Bubba and Cole getting reacquainted. Bubba thinks Cole has changed the most out of all of the boys, I guess I didn't realize that he wasn't even fully walking when he left in May. Now he he running and talking so I guess that is a big transformation.

Bubba and Henry, I think Henry was still warming up at this point but he was all smiles the rest of the night.

Cole and Bubba playing the piano.

The bigger boys had a great time wrestling with Bubba.

The boys also had a great time trying on all of the various parts of Bubba's uniform, here is Luke with the coat and hat.

Jack's turn with the hat.

The big backpack was a big hit, some preferred to try it on.....

.....others preferred to get strapped into the backpack. We tried putting Cole in first but he was pretty unsure of the whole idea but to no one's surprise Luke jumped in very willingly and loved every moment!

I bet Bubba's glad he didn't have to travel with that carry-on.

Here is a quick video of his arrival at the airport. (note: to listen to the video you have to pause the music player on our blog)
