Tanner's Home!!

January 30th was such a great day!  We were all so excited to head to the airport to pick up Elder Johnson.  We left home around 10:30 am, picked up Brynn from school (she wanted to go to school to help it go faster) and then were on our way.  We got to the airport around noon and his plane was due in at 12:56 pm.  We wanted to be front and center.  When Zach flew in, there were a lot of other missionaries returning.  When Tanner flew in, there were only four--him and two sisters on his flight and another Logan Elder on a different flight.  Our family was there, Grandma and Grandpa Butler, Shannon and Kiley and then Ben Weese, Sam Tenhoeve, Jaxon Fillmore and Andreas Anderson were also there to greet him.  He kept saying it was so weird to be home!!  (and hear English).  We stopped at Costa Vida in Centerville--although he wasn't hungry and then continued on home.  He was released by President Barfuss at 7:00 pm.  What a special time that was!!  He asked Tanner a lot of questions about his mission and his feelings, what he learned, etc and he bore his testimony both in Spanish and then English.  He was very emotional when President Barfuss told him he was now released as a full time missionary.  When we got home, many friends came by to welcome him home, including Diane Weese, Garrett Wright, Sam Tenhoeve, Jaxon Fillmore, Cayden Feldt, the Peterson family, etc.  He was happy to be home and we are so happy to have him home.  He is adjusting well!  He will speak in our ward on Sunday, February 11th at 1:00 pm. 

Waiting!!

He's real!!!
