i love a good homecoming.

i just saw this amazing video on elise's blog.  since a. and i just had our own homecoming after a year-long deployment, it really struck a chord with me (he'll be home 2 weeks sunday!).  homecomings are so incredibly emotional & words can't begin to explain what you're feeling.  this video is the closest representation of the happiness and excitement and joy we felt the day we saw each other.

luckily, we'll never be going through another deployment again, but if for some reason things change, i'll be copying this- for sure.

and as a. said, this homecoming was so much cooler than his.
