Welcome Home Elder Hicks!

 We were so excited to welcome Johnny home from his two year mission in New Jersey!  Brigham and Jacob were so excited to see each other at the airport that they spent most of the time chasing each other, wrestling on the ground, and playing on the escalators.  But we were able to get them to hold still for a few minutes to hold their sign while we waited for him.

When Johnny left I was 8 1/2 months pregnant with Brigham.  So this was his first time meeting Brigham and Lexi.  When he left he had one nephew, and he came home to 5 nieces and nephews.  The Hicks family gatherings are a bit more chaotic and noisy than they were 2 years ago.  

It was fun to wait by the escalators to see who would catch the first glimpse.  We saw him right up at the top and he gave us a little wave and then came down for lots of hugs.  It is so great to have the baby brother home again.  We missed him so much.
