Anyone who has sent off a missionary can attest to the feeling of total crappyness of taking them to the MTC to say goodbye for two years. BUT the feeling when they come home is the complete opposite! We went to pick Spencer up from the airport at 12:00 am (last night .... this morning?) and all his fellow travelers came down the escalator except for him! So I lost my patience and went upstairs to find him. And that is where we got to do that thing where you see each other and drop your bags and run at each other full speed and embrace and shed tears. It was awesome! I am so proud of my little brother and so happy to have him back. It feels so good to have our family back together again. Ahhhhh. Yes.

Hurrah!! Tell Spencer 'welcome home!' from us. Who knew you could love your extended family so much?...I heart all of you Cravens.
That's exciting! I'm glad you could have the picture perfect reunion you might see in a movie. My brother on the other hand stuck out his hand to give me a hand shake, then awkwardly stood stiff as a board as I wrapped my arms around him. He responsed with, "I'm not allowed to hug girls". To which I replied, "Yo weirdo, I'm your SISTER!" Yeah, my family has issues with physical affection.
