The Smith Whanau 7: guess who's back!? back again....

zach is back, tell your friends. haha no furealz though. zach got home last night at 9.25ish. it was originally supposed to be 3.20 but, he missed his flight in phoenix which as an apparently confusing airport so we forgave him. he ran after the place[no he didnt, but he barely missed it]. his luggage actually came without him so me and stacie went and picked it up at 3.20 and gave dirty looks to everyone who left him because we felt someone should be responsible.

soo last night, the plane landed and people started coming off the plane and we were waiting forevaaa and we didnt see him and soon enough, there were only like a couple people left who came through the doors. then the security guard[who was the only one i saw working the airport istself] closed the door. which really confused us because he hadnt come out yet. so of course a bunch of thoughts came into our minds like, maybe he is hiding or maybe he wants a grand entrance and wanted to be the last one off and then there was also this, maybe something happened but we doubted that one. anyways, the suspension was killing us, obviously, and then we see the security guard come to the door one last time, and he opens the door and a fine, young, STUDLY missionary walks through the door. and then the tears fell and the screams came and really long hugs followed and it was basically wonderful:)

then he got released at the stake center and we[our fam, stacie, and my aunt alma and her boys] came back to our house and ate and talked and talked and talked for a long time.

then today...we hung out in the morning and i missed a few of my classes and then went to skool for a bit and fell asleep and yada yada yada we had some close friends over for dinner and a reunion basically:) and that was fun. the kids were all really happy to see zach, especially the ones that he used to babysit. and here's some pictures from that.....enjoy!

this is from before...we were pretty excited!
