Germany is Lucky

farewell: he did so great.

tj and his bestie giving good-bye hugs.

zach and tj are really close. those two clicked and have been close ever since. im so glad.

ben had a test or something so he's not pictured at all... but he went to lunch before. and he's part of our family. same with my dad. he was there. :)

ann dee's house killing time before we left. had to say his last goodbyes to ashy. the cutest cousin in the world. he sang "if a thing is hard to do" for us before we left. and then my mom told tj to remember that. really though.
"tra la la la, la la la try try try."

these two. it's hard to see them separated for the first time in their lives. it was hard to say bye.

we're so proud of you, bud. see you in two.


*now onto our next little missionary. drew, zach's little brother, is leaving for San Juan, Puerto Rico on March 14th. and we are SO excited for him. and equally sad. he is such a sweet boy, we love our drewy. he'll be a great missionary.
