Bitter Sweet
So this morning my family sent my brother off on his mission. This is surprising even to me but... against the odds.... I'll miss him. I know I know! Crazy right!!? And you'll never hear me admit that again so write it down. This moment needs to be documented. Everyone was crying (including me). K so this is the bitter part, now lets get to the sweet part. We got lots of pictures (which really annoyed my bro. :P). But the really great part is that my brother and his childhood best friend left on the same day, on the same plane, on the same day. It was great for both of them. We didn't need to send them off alone. Goodbye Ry and hello Elder Hancock! I'm really proud of him and I'm rooting (Sp?) for him to be the first guy in my family to stay the whole two years!!! Go Elder Hancock!!! Woo woo! I'll be writing him lots of letters and sending him lots of cookies and such. Oh ya, by the way, He's going to Calgary Canada. The weather their in the winter is like, HI- 7, LO-(-20). He's gonna freeze what little but he has off. Hahaha. The summers their are beautiful though. its like, HI- 75, LO- 68. We told him he should make friends with snow birds with no kids down their and get in on the will so he can inherit the summer house down their and we can go visit. :) Hahahahaha. He's gonna be coming home during the summer two years from now and I really hope we can go pick him up there and stay for two weeks. How awesome would that be!!? Well that's kinda all. here's some pictures of the difference between Calgary winter and summer. :) See ya in two years Bro!!! :)....:(

wow. i don't get it. everybody is all like talking about how they send their brother off on a mission and how theey totally cry and i didn't do that. sorta am disappooooointed but then again proud cause i'm different and who doesn't love that!?! anyways... write him like the most random goofy things. makes them laugh and they enjoy it( him and his companion). but never write them the I MISS YOU come home soon crap. he doesn't need to hear that. it's also mrs. juicy now cause on molly's story on fb... i'm married to brayben.... so yah!
ReplyDeletehaha. my brother would definitely NOT laugh if i wrote random goofy things. he would think im annoying and weird. haha. so.... thats probably not the best idea. :) i cant believe you didnt cry!! did the rest of your family?
