What an unbelievable experience we had! Even though Brian wasn't supposed to have us at the airport, we received several messages from him and the other elders worrying about the phone situation at DIA. They have been taking out the phone pods and so we thought they would have a hard time finding a place to call home, so we decided to go........
They were late arriving in Denver from SLC and we waited off to the side - didn't want to be obnoxious! :) Me? They were all sooooo cute. We got to meet them all.
Elders Behnke, Pond, Fuchs, Baccile, Watson, Gorringe, Sisters Brown and Zimmerman
Brian with his Grandma
They were all so very nice and gracious. We took them to Wolfgang Puck's at the airport for pizzas and salads. We carved out a nice place for us to eat while the missionaries called their families and relaxed. We brought enough cell phones for them all to call home and spend as much time as they needed chatting. Even Elder Fuchs was able to call and talk with his family in Austria.
The time we were able to spend with Brian and his friends was priceless. I am so glad we were able to go and share in their enthusiasm and send them off with fun care packages to tide them over on their 9 hour flight to Frankfurt.
Then.......he was off!!!
What a wonderful wonderful experience!!!!!!
