airport: the means of uniting them

eh... or us? i don't know.

first thing's first. apparently from the evidence below, i'm the only one who thinks i'm funny. no surprises there. thanks for the courtesy laughs, family.

2nd, my mother looks like her sister vicki when she wears these glasses:

aaannnd, kind of important, my sister cami came home from an 18th month mission in finland. we came prepared to make cami's entry as triumphal as elder kessler's (if you haven't seen saturday's warrior, curse thee) by making a banner she could run through!

please note jess' face. and if you already have, note it again.

happy happy reunions:

please notice here that every person is smiling while they watch cami hugging rachel. which is so awesome! but even MORE awesome is that no one in my family or the friends that came to greet cami on thursday know who that short, dark-haired woman is. second to the right. but she's just as excited. Boom!

one more thing: cami kept staring at jess, rachel and me because we were being just a LITTLE bit loud and giggly because we were so excited. apparently finnish people don't act anywhere close to as loud as we did unless they are drunk. sometimes i love that about the u.s.. and usually it's always.

i only wish lauren could have been here. but we can only look forward to reunions next weekend. dee dee dee!!!

also! thanks hemsleys and lymans for the pics!
