Devin's Mission Farewell

Today was Devin's Mission Farewell. It's hard to believe that he'll be leaving in 2 weeks. Our church started bright and early at 9am. They had 2 youth speakers and then Devin spoke on the blessing of keeping the commandments. He did a great job. There was some time left over so President Lew, our stake president spoke. After sacrament meeting, we all came over to the house for brunch. We had close to 100 people so we had it set up in the garage and on the back porch. It was GREAT weather so that was nice. We had breakfast casseroles, cinnamon rolls, muffins, and fruit. We had lots of help which was very much appreciated! Our neighbors even came when we were done and helped us clean up when we felt about ready to fall over. What a great day!

What a wonderful day. Hard to believe how old all the kids are! Life must seem a little quieter with him gone. I mean in a good way!

Okay - so you'd think my parents would have at least let me know my cousins were going on a mission. I've been searching with little luck to know where exactly they've been called?? Wanna help me out there?
