Military Dad Surprises Family At Sesame Place

By Matt Rivers

LANGHORNE, Pa. (CBS) --- There were tears of joy at a very popular attraction Saturday as a heartwarming reunion took place.

Air Force Sergeant Justin Bright came home from Afghanistan, his 5th deployment, and was eager to see his family.

"I'm not nervous, I'm just excited," he said. "I've never had something like this go on before."

When the big reveal took place, it was easy to see Bright's wife's stunned and happy reaction. Tiffany Bright hasn't seen her husband in person since August of last year.

"This has been a long haul for us, and it's kind of been a rough year, so it's great to have him home," she said. "It's so hard because a lot of times you don't even get to talk to him, so seeing him in person, it's just overwhelming."

The whole family came together again, after a Sesame Place surprise.
