Can't Wait to See You in Two Years, Evan

Here are the last pictures as we dropped Evan off at the Mission Training Center in Provo. He is shown here with Gavin, giving him a last hug. It really helped to have Alana and Megan at the MTC to say goodbye to him. It was pretty tough to do. . .sending him off for two years to serve the good people of Argentina.
Here Evan and I are on the grounds of the Provo Temple. He looked very handsome in his suit. I will miss his smile and willingness to go places with me.
We got together with friends and family in California and Utah so that they could say goodbye to Evan. Valerie and Allyson Reeves joined us, as well as Nate and Annie to talk about his mission. Evan and Valerie and Allyson have been good friends since they were old enough to run around and play together when they were two years old.
Evan wanted feijoada (black beans and rice) for one of his last dinners with the family. Thanks to Megster for making it for him.
Cousins, Allison and Erin, came for a last dessert at Bali's. Evan will miss all of the family and friends that have been so supportive of him over the last many years. Good luck, Evan. We love you.

Morro Bay Memories

They look like rodeo cowboys but in reality they are Evan and Gavin riding the "ponies" at F.McClintock's Restaurant. Evan wanted to go there one last time before going to Argentina on his mission.
As was usual, the waiter poured water into Ian's glass on his head, blindfolded. There wasn't even too much water spilled on his head.

We went to the La Familia Pumpkin Patch and picked out our pumpkins for Halloween. The little kids got to see the animals on the farm and went through the corn maze.

Gavin and Lisi got to ride a "bale of hay" horse at the pumpkin patch.
