Farewell Kenton

Scott and I are always wondering if Annie has said her first word. She says mama and dada but we kindof think she is just babbling. One thing is for sure: her first word is now KENTON. I wouldn't believe it until I heard it with my own ears. She looks right at him and says it clearly. Kenton is such a great uncle and takes good care of Annie, he even took her grocery shopping to give me a break once. We went down to UT for his farewell and are sure gonna miss this guy. What a bittersweet feeling when a missionary leaves.





Kenton's going to the San Pedro Sula, Honduras mission. He flies out the exact same day my other little brother, Jake, gets home from Chile.



Kenton and our cousin Conner leave at the exact same time for the exact same mission. We almost thought it was a mistake. Here they are enjoying some of their last few days.



We got to go boating with Kenton. It was a beautiful day but a little windy so we pulled out the good ol water weenie and had a blast.




Annie, Kalia, and Claire. It's so fun to watch them play together, although they all have a secret desire to poke each other's eyes out.


Annie's been doing a lot of traveling latley and has become quite attached to her soft blankie. But she's a champ and adjusts pretty well.


Goodbye little Kenty, see ya in 2 years!! sniff sniff...

If anyone wants to write him:
