Andrew is Home!

 Here is the Welcome Home committee. We are anxious to see Elder Shaw

 We were way excited to see him descend the escalators with the two other missionaries he flew home with from Brazil. It took about to 30 hours to get Andrew here.

 It was only fitting that Mom was the first to give him a hug. It has been two years.

 Emily was excited to have her big brother home. She has missed him.

 Andrew was happy to see Grandma Shaw and so was she happy to see Andrew.

 It was great that Landon could make it to the airport and welcome his brother home.

 Rory had not seen Andrew for a long time. Rory had been serving active duty in the military about five to six months when Andrew entered the MTC.

 Here is a picture of the Brothers. Andrew is wearing three leis made of American candy.

 Andrew had many stories to tell about Brazil while we were waiting for his luggage.

 Mom and Emily decorated the house for Andrew's homecoming; they even had yellow ribbons on the old magnolia tree/bush and also hung a Brazilian flag.

 Andrew felt sad to leave Brazil but nonetheless is grateful to finally be home.
