Curtis' youngest brother, Kyle has been serving in the London South Mission since summer 2013. Kaden was only about 9 months old when Kyle left, so he literally didn't remember him at all, despite our best efforts over the last few years to show him pics of Kyle and have him Skype with him at Christmas time. Kyle came to visit us in North Carolina, right before he went on his mission. That's weird to think that so much could change in two years, but Kaden is definitely not a little, chubby baby anymore.
We went to the Salt Lake International Airport on June 10 to pick him up. It was so fun to see him again! My favorite part of it all was watching Dana, Curtis' mom. She just cried for joy when she saw her boy again and I couldn't help but tear up as well. (Blame it on the pregnancy hormones I guess...)

Sweet reunion between mom and son
Kaden wasn't so sure about this uncle he hadn't seen for quite some time...
Me, Kaden, Curtis, Kyle, Jason, Jackson, Evan and Dana
We love Kyle and are thrilled that he had such a successful mission and now he's home. It's weird to think that he's the last Fairbourn missionary until my nephews and own sons go on missions. That'll be awhile for sure.
