There's No Place Like Home

It was so nice to have Brittney home again after a year and half in El Salvador serving a church mission.

 Brittney unpacking her suitcases,

and sharing her El Salvadorian treasures like this handmade hammock,  

 and El Salvadorian's version of junk food.

Brittney sharing her pictures and videos from the last year and a half.

  After suffering the effects of Parasitic infections for the past year, our first order of business was to make sure Brittney was properly hydrated.

 Brad taking good care of her by warming up her cold hands,

  and providing distraction and entertainment via Jimmy Fallon reruns.

 Brittney was also comforted by hand delivered care packages from friends,

and Skyping with her sister Aubrey.

About the time Brittney sat at the piano and started playing beautiful music, we knew she was going to be okay.

 Brittney feeling a little better holding flowers she received from a companion's family, and me, the most grateful mother ever!
