I was so so SO excited to be a part of this reunion. In fact I was excited months before it even happened. Aimee hired me at least four months before her husband was scheduled to come home from his deployment. We chatted and planned, shared her sadness when a week before his return date they gave word that they might just extend their leave to a new location without returning home first, and then got super, SUPER pumped up when JUST KIDDING THEY'RE COMING HOME ON SCHEDULE! We had ourselves a great time the night before, trying to forget about how anxious she was. It was like we were going to Disneyland the next day! But BETTER!
And then... the time came and we waited in the parking lot. And waited. And waited. And finally the soldiers showed up, marched in, and ran to their loved ones. And here's what happened when these two love birds caught a glimpse of each other...

And there's even more goodness after the jump...
