Welcome Home, Toph

My little brother, Chris, is coming home tomorrow. He has spent the last year in Iraq serving in the US Army. I cannot believe that it has been a full year since he has left. He sacrificed a lot to serve our country – his sister’s wedding, holidays with family, time with friends, vacations, beer, Starbucks, and so much more. Anyways, just wanted to say WELCOME HOME, CHRIS! I love you and am so proud of you! God bless those still over there and currently serving in our Armed Forces. Chris, I owe you a dinner and will pay up soon! Have a safe trip!!!

This picture was taken the night that Chris left for Iraq last year
