These are the two companions from Stewart's final few weeks. The apartment they were using was given over to a pair of Sister missionaries, so Stewart spent the last two weeks staying in the dorm area of the mission home.
Friday night was when Stewart was due to fly home. Jenni loves balloons, so Stewart's return Friday night was a good reason to have some! I think Sam looks more dubious here than he actually was. It was *really* late Friday night.
Suzanna made this AWESOME banner all by herself. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure when she had the time, between AP tests and other school work But thank you Suzu!
We watched people coming up the hallway for five minutes. Every guy in a white shirt or a suit was suspect. Finally, he emerged!
Suzu was great, running to give him a hug.
The reflective tape glared out on a bunch of our photos of him. But he looked great!
Saturday morning, our Stake President had us come to his house to release Stewart. There was a very ceremonial moment when President Halsey asked Jenni to remove Stewart's nametag. I think she might have teared up a little.
