Here he is getting his suit out of his hanging bag...
Tying the tie...
Tucking in the shirt...
Packing his scriptures!
We had breakfast at IHOP! Dallin LOVES breakfast food in fact the only thing he requested that I make before he left was biscuits and gravy, which I made the day before! IHOP feeds the missionaries for free, we saw several missionaries eating there before going to the MTC!
Here is Dallin on the phone saying good bye to Derek! He had seen Devin the night before and Blake was with us when we took him to the MTC so.... he had to call Derek!
After eating and on the way to the MTC we stopped at Verizon to switch the phones around... I got Dallin's and Blake got mine... what a good sport, do NOT ask me why we did this BEFORE taking him to the MTC, talk about putting salt in a wound! But, as you can see he has a smile! He was sooooooooooooooo ready to go!!! (He did ask the lady if she could keep his contacts in the phone and she told him no, when they added my contacts he would loose his, she went on to tell him, "Don't worry about it, when you get home you will have to make all new friends coz all THOSE girls will be married!" OUCH. haha...
We were told to stop across the street so we could get pics of him in the FRONT of the MTC, so we did... but, we didn't actually walk all the way up to the corner, there were so many people doing the same thing we were! I really like this one of Blake and Dallin!
Okeedoke, here we are at the MTC... these 2 sweet Elder's greeted us with, "Welcome to the MTC!" as soon as we opened the door! They were very kind, I felt a little rushed, there were about 25 cars parked along the curb (we were at slot 23) letting missionaries out.... but they were very kind and told us to take all the time we needed! We took several pics and gave many hugs...
You can tell this was rough on Brad too...
But Dallin was ALL smiles!!! °Ü°
One more look back...
...and he was gone!
