crazy november

november was crazy and has flown by…

on 11/9/11 we took Elder Bryson Howell to the MTC in Provo to begin his two year mission to Houston Texas. It was an emotional few days before he left….we tried to spend lots of time together and had so much fun together…

not gonna lie dropping him off at the mtc was hard….but not as hard as i thought…(this week has been the hardest…it has finally hit that he will be gone for 2 years and i am missing him so much)…it was exciting to see him begin this incredible adventure and i can’t even say how proud of was of him walking away….P1040152.P1040155P1040153

max had some exciting things happen this month as well but we won't post about it for a while :) but pretty much he is going places with his life...

we had a great thanksgiving started off with a little 4.5 mile race (lindsey's very first race) then we had dinner with my family. The next day was spent with maxwell's family and a little time with the mountain (aka skiing)...
