He's coming home!!!

My brother Patrick is finally coming home from his mission in Costa Rica. His plane gets in tonight at 11:10 pm, so that stinks that its so late! My Dad went down 2 weeks ago to get some missionary experience and to pick him up. They have been able to travel back to a lot of his areas and do lots of fun things. My brother was released to my Dad when he got there so my Dad was his Sr. Companion! They couldn't get on the same flight home but they arrive only 9 min. apart so thats good. Plus they both have a layover in Texas, but one is in Dallas and one is in Houston...bummer! Here are some pics from the last 2 weeks and the last 2 years!
My Dad and Patrick with some of the people!
The day after my Dad got there they went and bunjee jumped. My brother had been planning it for months and since he was released to my Dad it wasn't against the rules anymore!

Patrick with some members...he is holding a bird.
He has always wanted a monkey so every chance he got to hold one, he took!
The beautiful Costa Rican shore line!

A baptism.
We are super excited to see him tonight! We have all sorts of fun things planned for this weekend but we ran into a small little bump...my Niece, my Mom, and I all caught the Swine flu!!! Luckily its a very mild case, but still! Kyle is sick too but he tested negative for it and he was sicker than me...go figure! Luckily Ezra is not sick so we just hope he doesn't get it! I have been washing my hands 400 times a day and wearing a mask when I get somewhat close to him. No Ezzy kisses for me...its killing me!
