SATURDAY NIGHT: party and fiesta at my house filled to the brim with desserts.
And Spike Ball. And tramp jumping. And the Olympics. And humans.

SUNDAY MORNING: I spoke in my home ward (which is the greatest ward ever) and then Hannah Jane and my uncle Paul sang/played "Nearer My God to Thee" which made my tear ducts run dry and then Elder Oaks of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles and his wife spoke which was so cool. After church, Elder Oaks and I had a little one on one chat which was super amazing and I feel so lucky. In the words of Abbey, "THE CHURCH IS TRUE FOLKS"
SUNDAY AFTERNOON: After church on Sunday, my whole family headed over to my house for lunch and games before they all headed back home. Sad and so bittersweet.

| See you in a little while my nap puddle cousins. I love you. |
So, that's it y'all. I will be set apart as a missionary on Monday night and then my family and I will head down to Utah on Tuesday and I'll be dropped off at the MTC at 12:45 on Wednesday afternoon.
Thanks for reading and laughing and crying and loving with me.
This is not goodbye, it's see you later.
Love, Caitie
