We're Going Home

Just a quick post to say that after all of the appointments, it is decided that Jared is just fine to go home tomorrow. We will keep our flights for tomorrow morning and be home in the afternoon. We can't wait to see Gabrielle and Bradley and be in the comforts of our own home. I will post again this evening with more details, but for now we are so grateful for such an amazing outcome. Thank you all. We have been truly blessed.

  2. Congratulations!!! FYI: The morning victory dance was so grand that it had to be continued in the living room accompanied by the electronic keyboard music selections. It was to die for funny, and I was too involved to remember the camera. I'm sure if you use your imaginations, you can conjure up what Ana and Isabelle...and their lovely mother looked like. :) ROFL!!!
    We love you and are SOOOO excited for you to get to go home.

  4. A grand day of celebration! Blessings and loved are all around us and there is much evidence that is yet to be discovered of all the love that abounds and surrounds this sweet family. I can never cease to be amazed by the goodness of people. Thank you to all you secret elves that have been there behind the scenes doing good works of kindness. Your acts of love are certainly a blessing and touched my heart as I am sure others.

    The greatest blessing of all is having you all coming home today. I am counting the hours. Not unlike a mission homecoming and the anticipation I used to feel, those emotions of love begin to emerge through my eyes and well up inside. Miracles never cease and Jared, you are the greatest miracle of all. Heavenly Father hears and answers prayers--you are evidence of that! He knows our hearts and desires and has blessed you through this incredible journey of experiences. We love you so very much and cannot wait to wrap our arms around you with expressions of gratitude. I will also have some yummy kryptonite on hand for your amazing appetite that we also welcome back.

    Travel safely dear Andrew and Jaime. You are an amazing couple and your commitment to the gospel is reflected in your family. Thank you for teaching true principles by example. We love you dearly! xoxGrandma/Mom Vance

    PS See you soon...

  7. Welcome home guys!! We are thrilled that you could come home so soon, and amazed at the miracles that have occurred in the past two weeks. I ditto what Nikki E. said about the poster making...it was such a sweet moment to watch all those excited Primary kids carrying this huge banner up the street to your house. I wish you could have seen it; so tender yet exciting in that moment.

    This whole experience has been teaching us all so much, and it feels like it has united us as a neighborhood and ward family in a unique way. I'm just sorry that it has had to come through such a difficult process for you! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of this journey, and to learn from your incredible strength and faith. The Randall (and Gardner) family is so grateful to have you in our lives! We love you and are so proud of you Jared!!! Welcome Home!
    Love, Liz & Josh Randall fam
