Looking Back

                  On January 30th at 12:40, we were five minutes early, we dropped JD off at the MTC.  It took all of 90 seconds.  
I am not exaggerating.

We had a wonderful morning.  We went to Angie's, in Logan, for breakfast and hot chocolate.  Their cocoa comes in mugs with cream that might as well be ice cream.  Brynne and Clark said good bye to JD there.  

We drove to Provo on roads that weren't great.  We stopped at Kohl's in Provo to buy a watch. We met another family doing the same thing.  They were  taking their son to the MTC that day too.  We went to the temple to take pictures.  

Elder Webb (JD's Host) Elder Wyatt Christensen from Preston

We drove to the MTC.  We parked.  We all got out, gave JD a hug, got his bags out, and then he was onto the curb.  We heard someone say, "Hey Elder".  JD dropped his bag and wrapped his arms around Elder Wyatt Christensen from Preston a former baseball teammate and friend. His host, Elder Webb,  picked up his bag and then they walked away.  JD never looked back.  Everyone says this is great.  It wasn't so great for those of us still standing on the curb.  We were all better though 24 hours later.  This is going to be fun.
