[Party]

Jimha's welcome back party. What a party! Chris came too :)

Not the greatest of pictures but I still love them - my family!! (and just a few of us!)

He looks confused - haha

Me and Rach showing how it's done!

The girls :)

The evening certainly was interesting. We went back and crashed at Jrod's that night and Jimha and I ended up walking around outside in the middle of the night as he started processing Iraq. Watching him go through those emotions, pacing up and down, so emotional, was heart wrenching.  I'm so thankful I could be there, but my heart hurt so much for what he's been through - there truly are no words and I know that was just .005% of it. I'm so proud of him, but I so hope he doesn't have to go back there. And tonight, he's home and with us...and that's all that matters to me.

[He'sHOME!]

He's home, he's home, he's home. And I am such a happy girl.

Me and (the cuz) Rach

I LOVE dancing...we were such goofs out there ;)

Me and Jimha!! SO glad he's home.

Jrod and M - not much of the line dancing type! ;) But they did try earlier!

Our family Christmas. It's been a long few months, there aren't even words to describe it. But for today, we're together, Uncle Tim is here, and it's Christmas.

3 Generations of Ryan ladies :)

Me and Gabey...I adore him.

Me and brudder. :)

Me and my rock start grandparents!

Family dinner.

Jrod and Gabey :) I love this picture!

After a little wrestling match ;)

Danny and Buddy.

Uncle Tim calling Jrod telling him to get his butt back to the house. It was a hard day for Jrod driving all over, and M wouldn't come back with him. So sad she missed it. 

And that's us :)
