Today was a special day for all of us. My dad returned home from Iraq. My mother wanted to make his return home memorable. We rode to the airport in a limo. Once at the airport we hung up a couple of signs and each of the kids had a balloon. When dad came up the escalator he was greeted by the whole family. Dad had a bear for each of the kids that said camp Kalsu on the bear's T-shirt. Then we headed to Montgomery Inn on the river. We had a wonderful lunch and the kids enjoyed sitting river side. Once we arrived home, we enjoyed listening to Dad's stories. He talked about his favorite parts of serving in Iraq and also some of the scary parts. We are definitely glad he is home safe now. Before we left, Evan had one more surprise for grandpa. Evan and his kindergarten class wrote welcome home letters to give to him. Grandpa loved reading each and every one. He said to give Miss. Henderson's class a big THANK YOU!
