missionaries

Well guys, yesterday I had to say bye to one of my best friends, Seth who leaves on his mission to mexico tomorrow! and about two weeks ago I had to say good bye to another friend, jarrod who is leaving for his mission to canada a week after seth. It was sad having to say bye to these guys. so this post is a shout out to them, my brother Alex who leaves at the end of the summer, and all of the amazing guys I met this past year at BYU that I had to say goodbye to.


I knew seth before college and Alex is my brother but other than that I met all of these guys this year and I came to love all of them so much. I saw each of them prepare to receive their mission calls and was so excited for each of them when it finally came. Until this year I had never been very close with anyone who left on their mission and this year I really began to understand the amount of sacrifice that is required to leave everything and everyone you know to serve for two years. It amazes me how excited and willing they all are to do this and I am so proud of all of the missionaries/future missionaries in my life.  saying goodbye is so hard but knowing that they are leaving to serve heavenly fathers children all over the globe makes it so worth it.


Here is a picture a guy in my BYU ward made that has pictures of the guys where they are going to be serving thier missions. how cool is this. guys from just the BYU 111th ward are going to be all over the world next year!
well I guess thats about all I have to say right now. Im really just so incredibly proud of the guys in my life and the amazing things they are doing. Im sad their going (so so sad to have to go back to school in the fall without them) but I know that they are doing what they are supposed to and I love them all for that.
