Launching Elder Robinson On His Mission

In late July we launched Elder Ryan Robinson on his mission to Texas San Antonio.
Bon Voyage Cake from Paulette Tagaloa of our ward.
Family pool party--arranged by Christian and Katie.  We played Marco Polo all afternoon.
 
Ryan gave an amazing farewell talk in Sacrament meeting. We had a family get-together. Ryan was set apart as Elder Robinson that evening.
Saying Goodbye at Grandma Joyce's.  We went to the Salt Lake Temple and Grandma took us out to eat at the Lion House Pantry, the day before Ryan entered the Provo Missionary Training Center.
One last hug for Mom.
We had our traditional send-off lunch at Pizza Factory, with Joyce, Robyn & Jeff
Ryan unloaded his gear at the MTC, with the help of the elders.  The parting was over so quickly.  Ryan/Elder Robinson gave us a hug, and walked off with a smile, not even looking back.  Way to go, Ryan/Elder Robinson!  Our prayers are with you.
