Top Golf

Not sure why we haven't done this more as a family since Josh has a membership and we don't have to pay to golf. But here we are. It was a fun last activity to do as a family.

 

Packing

I had to take a pic bc I was loving how organized and pretty everything looked all packed up. It probably won't look this good throughout the rest of his mission but at least it all started out this way!

 

Last Lunch

I'm not liking all of these "lasts." It is getting harder and harder. We had to get one last Costa Vida run in and it was fun to be together one last time. 

 

Hoco Poster

These kids are so creative. Brooklyn got asked to Homecoming by a kid she didn't know but is excited to go with. This is how she responded.

 

From Sammie

Rachelle and Kalila came over to give Brayden a special gift. She had a tie clip made with a little butterfly engraved on it so he could carry Samantha with him throughout his mission. It was a really tender moment and meant a lot to Brayden. 

 

Brayden September Pics

Brayden sends us an email and pictures every week. I'll print out a book of his mission, but want to make sure I include pics in our blog/family journal. These are a few pics from the MTC in Mexico. Overall he was pretty bored and didn't love his time there but he is pushing through it.

 

Cinnamon Rolls

It's always hard being the girlfriend left at home when a missionary leaves. I remember it well and it is so so hard. Ruby asked if she could bring cinnamon rolls over to Brayden while he was doing home MTC so we told her that would be fine. She surprised him and they got to talk for a bit.
