Tchau Sister Collins

This was a tender moment at SFO Henry and I flew out with Lucy to SLC since she didn't want to get on a plane crying. Plus...Henry was able to see a couple of colleges! Stop at Temple Square :) We stayed with the Cawley's and then got a morning visit with Cami Heaton! After that we drove through Provo Canyon and soaked up it's beauty. MTC garage farewell... it is possible to smile ear to ear and cry your heart out at the same time! It was a full life experience sending her off   💓 We had dropped her at college but this was all so different.  This time I felt like I was just handing her over to the Lord...and having to trust him more than ever.  As we drove under into the garage we were met with a cheering section of missionaries welcoming her in.  It was emotionally overwhelming but there could  have been no better welcome for her. Until we meet again in May 2023! P.S. Henry's trip to BYU and Utah State summed up in 2 photos  

November Fun with a side of Thanksgiving

November Days! I love November here...fall seems to shine out in Napa Valley:) We decided to do a couple of little trips for Lucy before she started her mission on November 15th   St. Helena is my favorite little town... I would live here Lucy's love language is food:) So, what better place to live and explore than the Bay Area? We drove into St. Helena and eyed The Station...a bakery/cafe located in a refurbished old gas station. I'm not lying, probably the best hot chocolate and scones and morning bun I've ever had in my life.  I'd make the drive all over again! All the shops had these banners adorning the entrances :) Finding yourself in paintings is fun :) We stood in a long line to get some meat and cheese and fruit and salad for lunch:) perfect food day for Lucy Other November days include these two going to a postponed homecoming dance :) They had a blast. The high school held it outdoors in the quad, both met up with friends and danced the night away. Clay still...
