Morning started at 5 am lots of mixed emotions mostly excitement. All the suite cases didn't fit in the van so Dad and Dahlen Tied them on top of the van. HAHA. We left the house shortly after 6am.
Stopped in St. George to say goodbye to Grandma Blake and pick up my skirt and blouse Aunt Janice fixed for me. (thank you Aunt Janice)

Grandma Blake has 5 missionaries out right now so she is a lot teary eyed. |
See you later's and lots of hugs and advice from Grandma and Grandpa Blake
Back in the van and on the road again. Traveling the I-15 all together sorta felt like we were going to a rodeo only one problem we were in the van. We talked a lot mostly about our rodeo trips up and down the road and memories we made along the way. We stopped in Nephi so Callie could deposit some money and notarize some papers at the credit union you know things we just didn't get done. Once we arrived in Provo we stopped to get lunch but nobody was real hungry nerves were pretty much taken over so we decided just Wendy's dollar menu would do. We had about 45 minutes so we decided to go to the Provo temple grounds and maybe catch Katie and her family before she left so we could give her some hugs. We are all excited to see if they become companions and what the two of them in Honduras will be able to accomplish.
Here we are waiting on the temple grounds most of our emotions hadn't got to out of control but the wait was getting the best of Callie she was getting sick to her stomach and thought she might throw up. As we went back to the van in the parking lot the kids needed things out of there Suitcases and so they decided to take them of the top of the van while we were standing around in the parking lot waiting for our time to drop them off which was 12:50.
I also think they didn't want it to last to long when we pulled up to the kirb both of
them wanted the drop off to happen quick. HAHA things are getting pretty
quite and lots of small talk. We all know the time is getting close to
saying our final good byes for a few years.
MISERABLEJOY!!
LOTS OF HUGS AND KISSES TO SEND THEM OFF WITH WE ARE SO VERY PROUD OF THEM!
Love ya Callie! And your family seems awesome. I wish I could've come to the farewell to meet you all!
