To say that drop off day is HARD is an understatement. The night before, the family went to Leatherby's Ice Cream Parlor in Orem to have milkshakes. The whole family with nieces and nephew in toe and cousin Blakely were all able to come, well except for Mac who had a tennis match in Ogden. It was a nice evening, but the butterflies of the next day started to set in and tears flowed.
On Wednesday, September 1st, the four siblings, mom, dad, and nieces and nephew all had lunch together at Red Lobster in Orem. It was the restaurant of Sister Ellis' choosing. She was a little nervous to eat. After Blake had to go back to work and the rest of us loaded in the Yukon and went to the Provo temple to take a few pictures.
After the traditional temple pics, we headed over to the Provo MTC for the drop-off. We aren't really a fan of the drop-off, but know it is a necessary evil in order for the blessings (mission) to begin. This is heart-breaking, but we know Kansas Wichita will love our girl as much as we love her.
