Elder Kent James Engstrom has finished his service
as a missionary in the Czech/Slovak Mission that
began March 2, 2011 finishing March 28, 2013!
We are SO EXCITED to welcome him home!!
I was excitedly waiting for Kent to come out the
international doors. He had to go through customs
here at DIA since he flew from Prague, to London
and then to Denver, CO.
"WE LOVE OUR CZECH MISSIONARY!"
Bryce drove all day and Jessie got to fly in just before
Kent landed, she had a class at BYU she couldn't miss.
Here we all are waiting, including Grandma.
Me and Cody waiting....waiting....waiting....
There he is!!! Just behind the other people.
Cody got to him first for the first hug. :-)
That's our Elder!!
I'm getting my hug, a good long one!!
It felt so GREAT to hug our son/brother!!
Bryce getting his first hug!
Dad's hugging his boy!!
Getting a "phone hug" from sister Chandra!
Grandma's excited to welcome another Grandson home.
I'm getting hugs in when I can. :-)
Kent met this missionary at the beginning of his mission
in the MTC and once again sees him on their flights home.
One HAPPY family!!! Even Chandra's "in the photo."
Cody is SO, SO happy Kent is home!
We had our sign already for our returning missionary.
"WELCOME HOME KENT!"
I don't know what they are looking at, I'm just
happy to be hugging my boy! :-)
Once getting home after a quick dinner at Laguna's,
we got Chandra and Tyler on video chat.
We had a good visit while waiting for our Stake
President Williams to come release Elder Engstrom.
So, Cody has given Kent his Barcelona soccer jersey.
We went to Barcelona and bought one for Cody and
Kent and mailed Kent's to him in CZ, unfortunately
it was stolen. Cody decided with Kent's love for
soccer he would appreciate the soccer jersey more than
himself so he "hand delivered" his jersey to Kent, just
to be sure he got it. :-)
We are so grateful our son/brother is home after serving
an honorable mission that blessed him and his family
and many, many others.
