By now we not only made it through the farewell, but Nick was officially set apart as a missionary last night. It was a great experience, but unfortunately I've never seen Nick look so scared. After all, it's the end of life as he knows it. I'm scared for him, so I can understand. But I just keep telling myself that we all felt good about it, so it's still all good.
Thank you to everyone who came to the open house. And thank you to everyone who helped, I couldn't have done it by myself--it's probably the biggest event we've held since our wedding. It was great to see so many people excited for Nick! The only problem is that since his friends have been so supportive, it probably makes it even harder for him to leave them. A special thank you to those who travelled to be here with us.
Today we're running around doing the last minute things we forgot, then we'll get him packed, and we're taking a family picture at the beach. Then tomorrow we fly to Utah to take Nick to the MTC on Wednesday. Wish us luck, I'm sure this will be hard for everyone.
