In order to make the 2:30 drop off time, we had to leave about 10:30 am. The last thing we did before leaving was Brent gave me a blessing and then our final family prayer. We even made him carry his own luggage.
His last meal was In-n-out, double double animal style and a neapolitan shake.
Our family selfie!
On a whim, we decided to drive by our old apartment. Then we decided we needed to recreate the picture below, the day we brought Brent home.
19 years is a long time!
We drove near the Provo Temple to say our goodbyes and have our last few minutes together.
We did lots of hugging.
Is there such a thing as too many?
I think we proved that there isn't!
Lucy was not going to be left out!
Last time for the boys, now dad is all alone.
This was a no mascara day!
So proud of our boy!
All the excited missionaries greeting the new ones.
Lots of mixed feelings.
One last family picture!
The last few minutes were so hard.
The hardest part was telling Brent it was time to go and then let him walk away. It felt like part of my heart left with him.
Off to his next adventure!
Trying to catch a last glimpse!
See you in two years!
