He Comes Home Today!

After serving two years in the Samoan Islands Brandon comes home today. We are all excited to see him. We spoke to him on Mother's Day and he sounds a little native. It might take some time for him to lose the Samoan intonation in his voice. That's OK. It will be the first time in 4 years our family had been all together.

Bryan is returning from his trip to Fiji with the BYU Soccer team. Ironically they both connect in LA and are on the same flight home to Salt Lake. I am sure they will work out seating arrangements and have a nice visit. I'm sure Bryan will fill him in. It is almost surreal. I can't believe he is actually coming home...finally. What a great experience it has been for him. He will carry Samoa and the Samoan people with him the rest of his life. Part of him will always be Samoan.

Sorry Brandon, I can barbecue pork ribs on the grill; I guess I will have to learn to bury the whole pig in the backyard pit and do it like you are accustomed to.
