Grant's Mission Farewell

Debbie had an open house for Grant after church. I didn't help out much since I was at Girl's Camp until late Saturday night. Grant with all his buddies.
Grant with his Dad - Guy. Grant looks so grown-up and official.
Grant, Chanel, & Sadie
(Chanel is a little bruised in the face, she wrecked her car two days earlier)
Grant & Taylor (Taylor leaves for EFY tomorrow for a week)
Grant, Sadie & Guy IV.
We went to dinner before Grant was set apart as an official missionary. These photos are of the kids in the car after dinner just before we went in to see the Stake President. They are all so silly together! Taylor, Sadie and Grant.
I got one with Guy in it!
Saying GOODBYE, is so hard to do. This was the last time we saw Grant. His mom took him to Provo early the next morning to the MTC. You can only take one car per family into the parking lot. They don't have a meeting with the families anymore, you just leave your missionary and their luggage at the curb to check-in. Due to the new structure, we said our goodbyes at home and sent him with his mom for this torturous goodbye ritual.

work hard, play hard, rider harder.
