When the 300 group came home from their bike trip, several of their families came out to the church to welome them home. We got several pics throughout the morning.

 |
| "Let's see if they're coming!!" |
 |
| "Nope, it's just Dad." |
 |
| The van containing, luggage, food, Mr. and Daniel Nicot, and Tim and Nathan Quatro came first. |
 |
| The van was absolutely packed!!! Nothing more would've fit if anyone had tried to put more in! |
 |
| Beginning the unloading process! |
 |
| "Here, take it! I'm gonna drop it!" |
 |
| The pile that began to grow outside of the van... |
 |
| "Give me something!!" "I want to help!" |
 |
| "OK boys, you do the work and I'll supervise!" |
 |
| ...getting larger... |
 |
 |
| ...and larger... |
 |
 |

 |
| "Can we get the rest of it out?" |
 |

 |
 |

 |

 |
| All the luggage |
 |
| "Let's go this way." "No, turn left!" "Wait, you're going to rip it!!" "Don't move!" "STOP!!!" |
 |
| "We made it!" "Does it look OK?" "It's crooked!" "Move left." "No, right." |
 |
| Waiting for the guys |
 |
| "PULL!!" "NO DON'T!!" |
 |
| "Move it a millimeter to the right!" (His helpful advice!) |
 |
| Don't see them yet! |
 |
| "THEY'RE COMING!!!!" |
 |
| Tired, sweaty, all happy when they rode in! |
 |
| They came through fast |
 |
| Getting off the bikes |
 |
| Eating pie |
 |
| Getting together for a group picture... |
 |
| ...Still coming. |
 |
| They're all there. "Joshua, smile!" |
