[.Far to long.]

What a long but most definitely fun day! At least we had the day off of work! Well, kinda! We both had to work for about 2 hours in the morning then had the rest of they day off! We went to the airport about 12:30 pm to await the new returned missionary Nate Oliphant! His plane was supposed to arrive at 1:00 pm but we saw that it had landed about 10 minutes early! Lance and I waited anxiously with his sisters Kamie and Robyn, brother Chayden, and his grandmother. They were holding bright colored posters getting ready for him to come down the escalator. Around 1:05 we saw Nate and both his parents coming down trying to find us. You could see the tears in their eyes that they were all happily together again (besides Scott - who is on a mission in Florida). We all stood around chatting for a bit waiting for their baggage. After about 10 minutes we had realized that there baggage hasn't come out yet! We looked at all baggage claim areas about 5 times each! So we decided to do some more talking to catch up! Thirty minutes later we had seen that there were bags on the very last place to pick up your bags, and apparently they had been sitting out there for quite some time! The airport just hadn't put the right destination on the screen! Oh well- it was still fun! The first thing Nate wanted when he got home was to have a Slurpee from 711 and Cafe Rio!! So we went and got Slurpee's, went back to their house, looked at all of his exciting souvenirs, including a Matte - A weed drink [tea], which by the way is pretty nasty! His family invited us to go to Cafe Rio with them, and of course we couldn't pass up the offer! Then after it all went back to his house to see all of his visitors come see him! He couldn't stop speaking Spanish!! At the end of the night Lance and I had gone home after a fun filled day! It had definitely been far to long since we've seen him last!
