The MTC

We took my brother Jed to the MTC a couple weeks ago. I really hate that place. Jed is one of Troy's best friends and my childrens' too! Because we live next to my parents', we are all extremely close and see my family daily. The kids adore their aunts and uncles and are especially attached to Jed because he always made an effort to come play with them. I miss him coming over to say "Hey Baby" to Brooklyn and Camden and asking if Cooper can come out and play soccer.
Buddies. Camden learned to say "Jed" the week before he left. It is so adorable.










The only pictures of me at the MTC are on my parents' camera and I doubt you want to see me with puffy red eyes anyway. I'm one of those sobbing people. We miss him like crazy!

I just am shocked everytim I see pictures of your brothers and sisters, i think in my head I still picture them as little girls and boys, It makes me feel old that he is old enough to go on a mission!

Oh Emily! How are you doing? I haven't seen you in forever and I'm dying to hear about Colorado and Thanksgiving! I'm glad you survived the day and now you can start counting down the days until Jed comes home!
