All Together Now...

Does anyone remember that song? Seems like it was popular when I was in high school or something. Anyhow, welcome home Elder Shawny Bubs!

I didn't get any pictures at the airport (forgot my camera - we wasted the "good surprise" on Kato, I guess...), so if anyone has any of those photos to post, please do!

When Shawn stepped off the plane, we almost didn't recognize him. He looked so Eastern European! But it didn't take long for that Shawny sense of humor to come out - and then we were reminded that he may be wiser, more learned, more experienced, and definitely more spiritual, but he's still our Shawn. He's had everyone laughing since he got home, and we're glad he's back...although we're sure the Estonian mission field will miss him!

Now for a few photos of Friday night's Christmas-tradition-shenanigans...

The annual Christmas pizza feast at Litza's.

All the boys finally together, and "stippin' off," as usual...

The crazies line up (still don't know what Kato's doing on the end there...) on Temple Square. From this perspective, Shawn doesn't look so unusally tall compared to his brothers!

All together again - and happy to be so!

Our other RRM (recently returned missionary) Kato, looking decidedly...old-west thuggish.

I'll miss you guys for the rest of the Christmas festivities, but we love you!
