Farewells, Goodbyes and EXCITEMENT

Sid left for the MTC in Mexico City today!  We had to have her at the airport by 4:00 am.  Her goodbye went alright!  We are all just so excited for her to finally be off on this adventure.

She met her travel buddy Valerie Gubler through social media.  Valerie was sweet enough to come to her farewell.

Sidney did a great job on her Farewell talk.  Her topic was on keeping the Sabbath day Holy.  She talked about traveling with LADM and how she set a goal to talk to people about the gospel every Sunday.  This really inspired her to become a missionary.

She was set apart around 10:00 pm. All her newly returned missionary brothers came over and helped set her apart.  It was a very special night.  They all gave her advice and told her one thing they learned from their mission.  Her blessing was awesome.  It seemed 10 minutes long and she was blessed with everything I could have thought of.  I'm so thankful for the spirit that was in our home that night!
