Right before I left, we had a little Bon Voyage, Birthday going away party. My closest friends came and we just enjoyed taking, eating and basically reminiscing and saying goodbye as most of us just graduated and going on missions or college. It was such a nice night and I loved having them all together. I'm so mad and sad I didn't get a picture!!!!! But just take my word for it, they're the best, more genuine, nice group of teenagers you could find. I'm so proud of the boys for going on missions and for the girls headed to college, especially since I saw first hand the amount of work and dedication it took to get them where they are. BYU, U of U, Weber, USU and UVU are very lucky to be getting these friends of mine. Not to mention all the places worldwide that are gaining my friends as amazing missionaries. Saying good bye was so hard, but luckily the next day I was off to Europe and had quite the experience to keep my mind off it. But still, when I texted my friend Evyn about the whole ordeal, he told my other friend Nate to call and make sure I was okay and talk to me. And Emily sent me hilarious DMs to make me laugh. Also, BIG NEWS-Emily is coming to Europe with me and my parents in November, thanks to the extra miles we got because of the cancelations. I'm so excited, especially since we'll have something to look forward to being 4 hours away from each other!!
Yesterday a last goodbye was said over Skype. Thank goodness for technology! Evyn is leaving tomorrow and I can't believe it! We've been in the same ward for forever, so I feel like so much has led up to this. The Sunday school lessons, mutual nights, youth retreats, etc. And it's so exciting to think that the next time we see each other I'll be a returned missionary too! Huzzah! I'm so excited for my mish :)
we talked for over an hour on Skype them finally said goodbye. He's going to the four corners mission, so it'll be super easy to mail stuff :). It was sad to say bye because so much will be different in 3 years, but all the changes will be good, so it's okay.
good luck Elder Conrad!
