My brother, Lucas, enlisted in the United States Air Force right out of high school. It was so weird having my baby brother away from home but yet I was so proud he was getting out and spreading his wings a little. His first deployment involved a 6 month tour to UAE (United Arab Emerance). He survived the 130 degree heat and sand storms, and after his 6 months was up he was more than ready to head home just in time for the holidays! While he was deployed, Lucas and I talked via skype and facebook fairly often and he had one request that I was responsible for while he was gone.... when he returned back to the states he wanted to surprise our mom and dad. Sooooo... considering my mom is slightly psychotic/bankstatement stalked/facebook stalker... I knew this was going to be quite a feat. With only a few weeks left til his return, I had to lie to my mom and make up stories as to where Lucas was and when he would be coming home. Then, on November 11th, Lucas flew to Milwaukee and we made the 6 hour drive to St. Louis... we stayed the night with my girlfriend and then drove home that Saturday morning for the big surprise... Here is the video... I cry everytime I watch it... Enjoy.
This is just awesome! Love it!
