Welcome home Elder Butler

It is so hard to believe that 2 years ago we were sending Levi off to Costa Rica. We have been waiting for this day to come and the kids have been so excited. When we got there we found out that his flight had been delayed an hour.( Surely it was not because of Mr. President). When I asked Levi about it he told me that his plane had a few problems that they were working on, therefore the delay. I don't know what is worse having malfunctions on the plane or sharing the runway with Obama. (Sorry for you Obama fans. But I am NOT.) They both seem a little scary to me. Were just glad that you are home safe and sound. Welcome home Levi. The pictures below explain the anticipation while waiting and the excitement after he was home.

Easton , Jordyn, Brett, Bridgette, and Seth watching the planes land.
Mark and Cole waiting patiently.

Preparing for Levi to come home to the "Real World".


Levi and 2 other Elders coming off the plane together. I think they were one of the lasts ones off.

Mitzi gets the first hug. How awesome is this. You gotta love the moment.


Easton showing the signs they made for Levi.


This was the first time he had seen Brittyn. I love the way she is looking up at him and not quite sure what to think. Levi came home to 3 new babies, and a lot bigger kids. Time flies when your having fun.

CRAZY! I can't believe he's home already- time certainly does fly... seems like it was only yesterday when Jackie came home :)!

I love your new background! :)
I think you may need to re-set your template to 'minima' though to center everything.

That's weird that it won't center! Try this:
go to your 'Dashboard', click on the 'Layout' tab, click on 'Pick New template', click the circle next to 'minima lefty', then click save template. Now do the process again again but this time click the circle next to 'minima' and then 'save template' and it should reset.
