Today Jacob had his mission farewell and what an AMAZING one it was! Jacob gave a great talk and he had so many visitors that they had to open the overflow area. Between all his BYU and high school friends and all the extended family and family friends, he had several rows filled up with supporters. After church, we filled our house up with all those friends and family. It was a bit crazy--I'm sure for awhile we had about 100 people here. I'm so thankful for Costco (we needed large quantities!) and for the family and friends who brought food to share. Jacob's Aunt Laura brought those awesome sugar cookies. It was such a fun afternoon. I know I'm a bit crazy, but I LOVE big get-togethers. Our family and friends are amazing. I know Jacob felt the love and support given by all these wonderful people.

The tie Jacob is wearing is "The Mission Farewell Tie". He is the third of his friends to wear it. Adam Walter was the first. Four will wear it in all. What fun! |
