Our good friends the Boersma's and the Brown's came with us to celebrate and welcome Nate home. The feel of patriotism surrounded us in the hanger and of course the overwhelming excitement of the fact that our husbands were coming home!!!
Melissa, Bryan, Jon, Lydia, and Kristyn
Due to the weather, the jets could not do a fly by in formation but they all came screaming into the break one at a time to give us a shout, "THE BLACK RAVENS ARE HOME!!!"
Nate flew the 500 jet (which the Skipper is in) so that meant it was going to be right in front of us...perfect, not too far to run!!!
It doesn't get any better than this!!
Since Nate was flying in today it also meant that CONNOR TURNED 4!!! We celebrated our little guys birthday that evening with cake and presents!! As you can tell he was very excited about his Batman costume....thanks Nana and Papa!
It is so surreal having Nate home and our family back together again!!! We are looking forward to a relaxing summer in Whidbey and enjoying just being together!!!
Thank you Nate for coming home!!!

Welcome home Nate! It's to great to see you all so happy and TOGETHER! No one deserves a sweet reunion more, what a rough year of separations! The candle blowing is HILARIOUS!!! That is going to be funny for years to come I'm sure. I hope your summer together is a sweet one!
Welcome back Nate. Now hopefully you can stay awhile. You have an amazing wife. She took this all in great stride. I know it must be so difficult being away from the boys but you never leave their heart! Janelle, all that hard work paid off. You look fantanstic and so does the house! Love you all!
