Well, we made it through another day at the MTC!! Bennett was nervous but happy to be getting on his way. It will be good for him to get the first day or two over with. We didn't get to see Austin, but we gave Bennett hugs for him to share!!! The first two things they said to us as we walked through the door was "Welcome to the MTC" and "Does any of the people with you today have a sore throat or a cough"? There was hand sanitizer sitting all over and a Doctor sitting at the front desk. They have also banned handshakes and stopped all missionaries going to and coming from Mexico. WOW!! So we left Bennett, happy to be on his new adventure. Our car and house seem a little more empty now. I'm not sure we will ever get used to that feeling.

Man, I got a little teary just reading that! We are so proud of Bennett though, and know he will be a GREAT missionary. Hugs for all of you and know we are thinking of you.
I don't know how you ever get used to it either! I get lonely when the kids are gone over night! He looks so happy. It has got to be a comfort to have them there together... both spanish speaking, maybe they will pass by each other!
I too got teary... We are thinking about you and love you all. They will both have so much fun and learn so much. I am a little jelous!!
Glad to see he made it. I am not so jelous...although I could stand to learn alot! Good luck, we will be thinking about you all and keeping the boys in our prayers!
I thought about you last week knowing it was time to send the next one. Congrats on sending to wonderful strong young men into the mission field.
