We had one last Sunday dinner together (missed you Chris and Karim) before my parents depart on their mission for 18 months. They both spoke in church on importance of scripture study (Mom) and the value of service (Dad). They both did awesome and it was great to be able to attend their sacrament meeting and be a part of this special day. We had our favorite dinner of chicken turnovers, salad, beans, and rice with fruit pizza for dessert. We talked and reminisced and then it was time to say good-bye. It was hard knowing that my parents will be gone for 18 months, but what a blessing for our family! They will be awesome missionaries and those they serve and serve with will benefit greatly from them.
