Our oldest nephew Tyler just returned home from his Mission!! He has been serving The Lord as a Missionary in Mozambique, Africa for the past 2 years. He is now 21 years old and waiting to go off to University in 6 more weeks. He has such a glow to him now and it is truly a pleasure to be around him. Hearing what life is like in Africa really makes you appreciate the little things we take for granted like running water and toilets. Tyler says though that the people are very happy, humble and kind. It really makes me not
want of the world so much and just live life as simply as possible and appreciate the little things... we don't have cable /tv so for the most part I am already out of touch with a lot of the world which is not such a bad thing. Matt and I spend more time talking and snuggling:) Time doesn't seem to fly by so fast that way. Anyways here are a few pictures of the day Tyler was coming home, a bunch of family came to Matt's parent's place in Okotoks and played for the day while we waited for Ty to arrive at the airport that evening:) I think there was about 35 people from our family at the airport and a few of his friends! It was a zoo, but we found a comfy area in the airport and everyone hung out for a bit and had cake!
Some of the 'Hill' ladies
Seth looking so colourful
Parks with his cousin Zach
Anderson snuggling with his Gran:)
Here we are! Ready and waiting...
Unfortunately my pictures aren't the best, but this was right when he came out...his 3 sisters all ran to him. It was really cute.
