Our Last Day!

Today we spent our last day together as a family before Jordan enters the MTC. We went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 4, then off to In and Out for some lunch. We came back to pack and got a phonecall from the Muirs to come over and hang out in the pool. Wow, what a blessing that was! We needed to relax with friends. We made it back just in time to shower and get dressed for Jordan to be set apart. He could not wait! The excitement was almost too much. President Carlson asked us to all say something we appreciated about Jordan. Kindness, Love, and Always being a good example were some of the things we appreciate about him. Then came the big moment....Jordan became Elder Mower and was set apart as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. What a wonderful experience that was and words of comfort that were given to him. There truly is a peace that comes with that blessing. To end the day, we had Sushi at Kyoto, then to drop the kids off at the Hoskins home. They all said there goodbyes, which wasn't too too bad thankfully!

I am so grateful for Elder Mower and am excited for him to go on this journey to Minnesota. We all know he will do a great job, work hard (with a little fun too), and serve the Lord the best he can!
