I recently joined a great organization called Welcome Them Home. They match volunteer photographers up with families that have someone coming home from deployment. I had been anxiously waiting my first one, and I was so excited to attend a homecoming at Camp Pendleton for the E family. I got to know Mom and their sweet little girl a bit while we were waiting. Dad was returning from Afghanistan with the 1st Combat Engineer Battalion. He had been gone for 7 months. As we were waiting the anticipation of everyone was just overwhelming – so many families and friends. Finally they arrived – and Dad spotted his little girl! As you can tell from the reactions of those around them it was priceless. Just amazing. Thank you so much to the E family for your service to our country!
