Sunday April 19th was the day when family and friends gathered to hear Mason speak in Church, and to show their love and support.
We would like to thank all that came and sent Mason off with well wishes and blessings- you are very appreciated.
The day was wonderful- I thought Mason's talk was touching and totally him. =)
{and I'm not just saying that because I'm his Mom.}
{Mason and our Branch President}
These are the men that stood in the circle when President Edler set Mason apart as a Missionary. {I was a little slow on getting a picture- so I grabbed them all as some were heading home; hence the reason some are not in a suit.} I really think that a Mom should not have to worry about pictures on a day like that. There were a couple other pictures I wanted to get but didn't, I'm hoping one of my kids has it on their camera.
Have you ever tried to get five children to sit still long enough to get a picture? .....I think it's cute still the same.
The girls-
When I took the girls out to take their pictures- Carlee notice Anna's "gloves" and said- "Grammer, can I have some hand slippers too?" Too cute. The matching skits in the picture on the bottom right- Shannon made. It was so much fun seeing the two girls twirl and run around in those adorable skirts.
Thanks to Sandi for all her help and especially for the fabulous dessert.
{recipe coming soon.}
Family and Friends-
Thanks to everyone- sorry if I missed getting you in the pictures.
It was such a blessed day- All of Mason's siblings{ Shannon, Sam, Kent, and Denver} were there along with their spouses and children. (Denver and Bree aren't married yet, but we count her as one of ours.} We so appreciated the kids for their support and love of Mason-
Today's the day Mason's enters the MTC- If I have a fast connections in our hotel tonight I will post about it. {we are hoping to get half way home tonight.}
