Saying goodbye to Mom and the iphone

Michael was so excited to be heading off on his mission.  He has a strong testimony of the gospel and will be a blessing to those he teaches.  Here he is saying goodbye to mom and the iphone! 

Saying goodbye to the Missionary

Our Missionary Heads to the MTC!

Michael is off to the MTC!  This is our last family photo before he left.   It was a big day for all of us!  Michael was certainly ready to go.  He has prepared well.  He spent his freshmen year at ASU.  He had a great year...studied hard, made good grades, good decisions and had a great time.  He took a few institute classes and loved his instructors.    ASU was a great experience for Michael.  So, Michael is off to the MTC...despite Mom's tears! Where did my little blond boy go that used to run around the yard in the summer time in his little red jeep?
