Action News Jax reporter Elizabeth Pace was there as the kids got home with a handful of gifts.

The family got back to their home in Paradise Village around 4 p.m. Thursday. Braxton and Bri’ya were all smiles as they carried new gifts inside.

“Just being able to walk through our door again and all be together once again,” their dad, Bryan Williams, said.

Neighbors dropped off gifts for the children. Others provided food for the family. Williams said they are overwhelmed but grateful for the support.

“Me and mom never gave up, family members, all of us, we never gave up because we just knew there was hope,” Williams said. “I knew they were out there and it will all be good.”
