Saying Good-bye

We now have about 13 days until we go to Utah and enter the Mission Training Center.  We had a family "Thanksgiving" dinner a couple of weeks ago and it was great to have everyone there, minus Ben and Rachel's family, who are currently stationed in Hawaii.
We also gave talks in church last Sunday, 23rd of October as our "farewell" for our mission.  During the meeting 6 beautiful primary girls sang the song, "We Are as the Army of Helaman".  It was very spiritual and uplifting.

It is hard to leave friends and family, but I know that what we are doing is what the Lord would want us to do at this time in our lives.  I know that our children, and grandchildren will receive blessing for our service, along with us.  We hope with the remaining days, that we will be able to see each of our children and grandchildren one last time before we leave.  We have 13 (in-laws are included) reasons, and another 20 reasons, that make it difficult for us leave.
