Over the weekend I had the opportunity to go home to Idaho Falls for my brother's missionary homecoming. He served in the Mexico, Merida mission. I only took Alissa with me and had a blast!
It was so fun to see how much Tyler has grown up. You can tell how much his testimony has grown and how much he loves the people he served for 2 years. He was amazed by how "rich" our family is. I think it was a humbling experience for him to live in a third world country and see how much we take for granted here. I am also amazed by how much we have here. We take so many things for granted, tons of clothes, shoes, electricity, cars, water heaters, nice homes, jewelry, dishes, refrigerators, freezers, computers, drinkable running water, garage doors with automatic openers, bathtubs, furniture, beds, and the list goes on and on and on. We do have so much to be grateful for.
Our family has a tradition for our 2 missionaries so far that all the nieces and nephews wear shirts when they come home that have a message on them. Since Remi and Broden didn't get to go we took their pictures ahead of time in their shirts.
We do love you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much Tyler.
