Yay the day has finally arrived for Matt to come home from Afghanistan. It's been 7 long months and some sad times but the best part is he is arriving home safe and sound. Matt is supposed to arrive back around 1pm so I am excited. He has his cell phone with him so he calls me when they are almost there and he lets me know there are three buses and he is on the second bus and what happens is the buses go into a fenced area the guys unload all their gear and weapons check their weapons in and then they come out of the gates to be with their families so I do have to wait while he gets this taken care of.
Once he comes out of the gate he is carrying all of his gear with him so we make our way down to the car so he can put it all up and then we spend a few minutes together just holding each other after the long months of being apart. It's great that he is home safe and sound and now we head to our hotel for the night till we get to go home the next day.
Here is the first bus
