Jared gave his mission farewell talk last Sunday. He spoke on this talk about standing alone from Pres. Monson. He did a good job and related experiences he had "standing alone" in the locker room when he told his friends to now swear. They respected him and would try not to swear around him. My uncles Larry and Monty and their families came along with some people from the ward and some of his friends from school came.
My Mom made him a thanksgiving dinner since he is leaving Tuesday and will miss Thanksgiving.
We watched home videos. Jared was just a baby in them. It was fun to reminisce and make fun of our clothes/hair and behavior. Good times.
Jared and me, ahhh! I'll miss him for 2 years, but of course I wouldn't want him anywhere else except on a mission right now. He'll be an amazing missionary!
Jared with my kids. While on the trampoline, the cousins were all talking about how old they were going to be when Jared gets back. It's crazy how time flies.
Jared arrive at the Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Sao Paulo, Brazil!!! He had such a long day, almost 24 hours of travel with layovers and such. He'll be in the MTC for 7-8 weeks and then go up to his mission in Joao Pessoa, Brazil. They better take good care of my little brother! :)
