Uncle A returned home from his year long tour in Iraq Monday morning!! Yay!
B-man, Boo, and I drove up to Kansas to welcome him. Unfortunately, his Welcome Home Ceremony was at 2 AM, so Boo and I stayed at the hotel while B-man picked him up at Ft Riley.
Our visit was short and sweet. We drove up on Monday and home on Tuesday. Uncle A had to be at work at 8 AM to start out processing and B-man had class Tuesday night.
We were so glad to be there to welcome him home. We're so proud of you Uncle A for all you've done this past year and we're so happy that you're back safe and sound.
Here are a few pics and videos of the ceremony.

So happy that Uncle A and his team made it back safely and that B-Man was able to record his arrival for their Mom & Dad. Wish all the guys were returning home safely. God Bless Our Men and Women in service as well as their families.
Love.

I am so glad that Uncle A is home safe.
We should have totally been in touch a little better, we were about 2 hours drive away from you guys, we could have hooked up, and had a meal together.
This is wonderful news!! Thrilled to hear about his safe return! May God bless our brave soldiers here and overseas!!
