Welcome Home Elder Peden

It was 5:43 AM yesterday when the shower turned on. My mom was up and getting ready. I was semi-dozing in that slightly anxious way when you know your alarm is set a little later than you really need to get up. I let Shannon sleep a few minutes more, but before long, we were all up and on the road to the airport to welcome Jacob home from serving in the Micronesia Guam Mission. Here are a few pictures of the happy homecoming.

  1. Eric,

    You captured a tender moment. Thank you to your family for your love and support. We really appreciate it. Shannon thank you also for all your help Sunday. You are a gem. Love ya.

  2. What a great day it was! Thanks Eric for getting these pictures. Once again I left my camera at home in Oregon. Sorry you could not all be there to feel this great missionary’s spirit.
