Farewell Sunday

On Sunday April 26th we had a little luncheon before Spencer's Farewell Address.  Well I suppose nothing is very little with my family.  We had 48 people jammed into my house.  The food was great and we all had a great time visiting with each other.  We were actually early to church that day - what a surprise!  Spencer did a great job on his talk.  I really felt the Spirit.  Justin Mortensen sang "Homeward Bound".  He sang beautiful as usual.  Shantell Kester also gave her farewell address.  She is going to Stockholm, Sweeden. 







Brittney (my daughter), Jennifer (my sister) & Ashley(my niece) all holding their baby girls only 2 weeks apart.
Michelle taking her turn holding all the cute babies there that day.
Eliza trying on everyone's shoes.  These were by far the cutest ones.  She knows how to pick out fashion.

The boys having fun being warriors.
One more week and we will say farewell to Spencer for two years.

Thanks for posting Belinda. I'll get on this things right away.

Also, good luck Spencer. You will be a fabulous missionary. There's not doubt about it. You talk was very good.

Spencer will be a great missionary! His parents have been fabulous examples to him. I've never seen your house and it is beautiful! Love the kitchen :) We really miss you guys and the rest of the ward! Good luck Spencer.

Cute pictures!!! Although there were a lot of people at the farewell, there was probably 4 times that many people shoved into a 4 times smaller house at Ashley & Keith's baby blessing;) The farewell sure was a lot of fun. It was great to see everyone.
