Sharrod's farewell !

November was a busy month for all of us we had 2 birthdays to celebrate (Brekken and Sawyer turned 3!) then thanksgiving which I forgot to take pictures of but it was really really yummy!!! And then my little brothers farewell... A sad and happy day! Im so excited for him and so proud of him but at the same time sad we wont get to see him for two years, not to mention Randi and I lost our best babysitter ever!
  Sharrod got called to the Sao Paulo Brazil mission. We had his farewell on the 28th of November and dropped him off at the MTC on Dec 1st. He has been in the MTC for 14 days already and he says its been a lot harder then he thought it was going to be but he loves it and likes both of his comps. he has 2 right now. He says he is picking up the language really well but is not to fond of the food :)
Here are some pictures of his farewell.

I can't believe he is on a mission! It seems like just a few days ago we sent all our friends on missions. CRAZY!
