Elder Brandon Bishop returns with Honor

On January 17, our 21-yr-old son, whom we had not seen in 2 years, returned to the Kansas City airport!

Before coming home from his successful Provo, Utah mission, Brad surprised him in the changing room of the Draper Temple! Brad and some of the Bishop family also had a chance to attend the final testimony meeting of 4 missionaries being transferred home with Brandon. Brad remarked that it was one of the most spiritual meetings of his life.

Elder Bishop, Grandpa Duane Bishop, Bradley, Grandma Anne Bishop appear in the chapel to witness the last testimony meeting of Brandon's mission. 4 other elders also were present along with Kristin Bishop and Brandon's cousins and many investigators and converts. Elder Bishop bore and firm testimony, with the help of the Holy Ghost, to the people present.

Waiting at the airport for the flight to arrive was made bearable with good friends:  Mary Ellen Naylor, Camille Larson, Travis and Sean Fackrell. My mom and children were also present to welcome home their brother (and father)!

My Mom is practicing using her new iPhone 5! She is getting pretty good.

Happy Reunion Indeed!
Reunited after two SHORT years!

Brandon's choice of lunch on his first day in KC:  Chic Fil A where he met his best friend, Jared Manning!

Martin Luther King morning was spent getting reacquainted with Spencer Lewis, Jared, and Joshlin Manning as IHOP!!!!! All you can eat pancakes!
