Little Brett is home

Well, he isn't "little," but my youngest brother just got home from a two year mission for our church.

Brett was born when I was finishing up my senior year of high school (I'm the oldest) and so there is an 18 year difference between us.

I drove over to Columbus, Ohio to see him, my sister and children and parents. It's great to have these little meet ups in random cities where none of us live. The visits are short, but fun. And, I get to spend money on $80 speeding tickets to further expand the cost of my trip. The joy of being a lead foot! Though, I will admit, that I am a very fast driver and I should be getting tickets all the time instead of every five years.

It was good to take a mini road trip and see family. It reminds me of the "I need to do this more often" that I often forget when I get too focused on work and other unimportant minutia.

Welcome home Brett!
