Lindy was called to serve a mission in the Washington DC South mission. She is going to report to the MTC on May 11 (she will be doing the MTC at home). We were planning on listening to her talk in the car on the way home. The drive is over twelve hours so we didn't want to get home in the middle of the night.
Once we were there it seemed silly to leave early that morning and miss her farewell. We decided we would stay and leave right after the lunch. Jonah and Wyatt were thrilled because that meant they got to spend the night with Jacob and Ammon. Julie snapped this picture of Jacob talking Jonah through tying his tie.
I'm so glad we stayed. Lindy gave a beautiful talk about kindness and tied it in perfectly to the Atonement of Jesus Christ. I'm so glad we got to be there in person.
We have all loved having Lindy live in Provo and we are going to miss her!
Matt had fun taking selfies with everyone.
Handsome guys.
Cody was sweet and helped Wyatt with his tie.
Wyatt had a hard time saying goodbye to his cousins. He had so much fun with all of his cousins.
Matt snapped a picture of Hallee when she was in one of her moods. He asked me if he should cheer her up, I dared him to! I don't think it worked.
After church we went back to Gary's for a while. I had fun playing a game with Kyle, Paige, Lindy, Ashley and Caitlyn. After that we went over to Julie's parents for lunch. We ate and visited and then said goodbye and got on the rode a little after 1 PM. It was a long drive home, but we took turns sleeping and got home a little after 2 AM. We were all so tired for a couple of days while we tried to catch up. I'm so glad we stayed though, it was a great way to end a great trip.
