He's Gone!

Michael was set apart Tuesday night after a long day in TriCities purchasing the last minute things he needed to take...

BJo, Anthony, Elder Michael Hebdon - there's Japan
.

TaDa! I think we are all smiling ?!!?!?
.

Michael checking his things to board the plane. We stood in line forever and then after getting his ticket she told him to run! We got there just in time for him to give each of us a hug and turn in his ticket. One more gal came behind him and they closed the door.
.

There he goes! (the plane is heading upward, between the trees) On his way to the MTC. We think he got to Salt Lake before we got home, because of the traffic stops we had due to construction. Some friends were to meet him there at the airport, so we think he had a nice reunion with them before taking the shuttle to Provo. He should be in the MTC now, and could see a few friends there today or within the next few days.
He will find his world a bit more filled, and I hope to find mine a bit less filled. It's crash time! We are tired and emotional today, but we will survive!
