Coming Home from Ryan Southwell on Vimeo.
You can also view it here. Note from the... filmographer, Ryan (is that what we call him?):
DOCUMENTARY: Lieutenant Dan has been deployed in Afghanistan since last October and is on his way home. But what makes it special is that he has a new baby daughter waiting to meet him for the first time. Watch as this journey unfolds throughout the day as the tension builds and the family reunites for the first time as three. It’s a crusher. You can’t help but feel some of the patriotism when he arrives home. As I said in a prequel to this post, this is the stuff life is all about.
I chose this song because it starts soft and subtle, with a little bit of mystery. But the end has a huge payoff that I love. Lifehouse – “Everything”.

that was a beautiful video. I think i short-circuited my keyboard with all my crying! I can't even imagine....her baby is about the same age as mine, to have zach seeing her for the first time? Seriously, I can't even imagine. I wish them all the best! Zach actually knows the husband from classes at byu, they were on the predental track together. Zach seems to know all your friends!
Wow, what a priceless video. Bawling here. And what a beautiful and strong family. I will always admire people like that. I am not strong enough to do that. Thank you so much for sharing. And a huge thanks to your friends for their service and sacrifice for us.
Oh my, what a great video. I am sure my being 39+ weeks pregnant didn't help my emotions as I watched it and cried, but goodness, what a sweet homecoming! Thanks for sharing!!! :)
