Adeus Brazil!
After two long years , our Sweet Pete is home from his mission in Brazil! He spent two tiring, hot, long spiritual filled years teaching the people of Brazil about our gospel. I am sure that he had some mixed emotions about coming home, but we all were so excited to see him.
We were only allowed to talk to Pete on Christmas and Mothers day on the phone so all other contact was either letters or email. Imagine that. What a sacrifice Peter made, and we are so thankful for the blessings that it brought the Morphy family.
Everyone was there at the airport to greet him. We had the whole Morphy side; Sam and Carol with Samantha and their temporary exchange student Harry from Australia, Aunt Mimi and Bill, and Liz and Charlie. We had the whole Baker family including Grandma and Grandpa Baker. plus all of Baker's sisters and spouses. Needless to say there were a ton on us there. It was so much fun.Cindy was probably the most excited to see him, and couldn't handle waiting in the back like the rest of us. She got as close as she could to the gate without having to go through security, and was the first one to greet Pete when he landed.
Peter looked so great when he got back, and I can't believe how much he looks like Baker. He had that Brazilian tan, and overall healthy look. Its so weird to think that he already left, served his full two years, and is now back. time really flies by. Baker and I weren't even engaged when he left and now we are pregnant with our first. Life is great!
