The clock was ticking away. January 6--coming way too fast. And goodbye's? The tough part of the mission. Brinley and Cameron enjoying some of the last minutes together.
Early morning January 6th. We were thinking the MTC in Provo was a rough ride! Here we are minutes away from watching Cameron go through the gate...alone. It was then we wondered where were all the missionaries and parents lining a room of excited 19-year-olds? So they go out one door, and we go out the other. WAY easier than sending them to who knows where...did I say ALONE? ALONE!! 
We lined Cameron up like Ronald McDonald and everyone got a chance to get their picture taken with him. Here's Kyle, Becky, Kennady, Jaxson, and Hallee by, of course, Elder Field.
Cassie holding Mailee, Addison, and Livie just enjoying the moment.
Jake and Becky with Adam, Lexy, and Jayda...and... it's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Addison! 
(sniff, sniff) Briant and Stephanie at the bottom of the escalator saying goodbye. We all rode up, hugged him one last time and watched him walk away. Oh yeah... painful. But, he'll be a great missionary and we'll be here in 2 years to line him up again and take the same pictures--our smiles will just be a little brighter then.
