Welcome Home Elder McNabb

There is nothing sweeter than welcoming home a returned missionary!  We have looked forward to this day for many months.  Everyone was here and we could hardly hold in the excitement.  We had three new additions while Austin was gone….Hannah, Maddie and Chalice so they had a sign that said, "We've been waiting our whole lives to meet you!"  The other children held a sign that said, "OPM knows you as Elder McNabb but to us you will always be Uncle Austy!"  
There is no way I can express in words the feeling as a mom when you see your son walk off that airplane.  There is so much love and pride that you are just about to explode.  I am so grateful that I have been able to do it two times with Griff and Austin.  In only 3 short years we will be sending Josh off.  I love those missionaries!!!!

Bishop Eggelston and Janice came out to welcome him home.
Austin was so happy to see his nieces.
Waiting and waiting and waiting….

Austin couldn't believe how big Josh and Jordan had gotten.
Waiting for him to walk out the door...
AHHHH! That long awaited hug!
