Can you believe it has already been 2 years??!! Jeremy came home from his mission on Thursday, February 17th!!

Jeremy reading the sign that we made him...

The sign says... On your mission you started out as a "Junior" companion. You probably felt like an "Airhead" at times. But you and your companion studied "Extra" hard and you became "Smarties" and scripture "Nerds". Let's get together so you can tell us some "Whoppers" from your mission. Sometimes it felt like you were in "Mars", so it's a "Joy" to have you home! We have been looking forward to this "Day"! Love, Your Family

Later that night Jeremy picked to eat at Chili's for dinner...

We're so happy to have him home!!
