Uncle Dallin and Sister Gordon

 Dallin and Darrin got a big chunk of our drywall hung while he was here....it is coming along....SLOWLY!
 This is what "Uncle Dallin" will look like by the time I get any grandchildren....haha!  My kids think I'm nuts.
 We had a going away party for Emily on Monday night.  Here are Emily, Timmy, Darrin, and Sarah peeling the eggs for one of the numerous dishes we served.  I was nervous not knowing how many people would come....but come they did.  Our ward is awesome.  They came, they ate, they brought gifts, they hugged, and they supported her.  We are blessed to be here and I think Emily really felt the love.  Thanks Seaford Ward!

 The little kids LOVE Sarah.  This is Peter and Lorelei...our Bishops grandchildren.
 Everyone ate some of the food, but holy cow I have a lot of leftovers....anyone hungry?
 I love this little pixie.  Lorelei is in my primary and I get to be with her every Sunday!  She is a great little singer.
 Jake Whitmer is also in primary with me, but only for a little longer....sigh....love this boy.
 Emily is comforting Aidan (the boy she babysat while she was here) and this is Kelly, his mom.   She is Tom Hoffmans daughter.  Tom and Kim are our friends and neighbors.
 Captain Bo!  Timmy loaded his belt with everyone's cell phones and then he made his serious face...after a few attempts that ended in laughter.  Bo is leaving next week to start a new job in Iowa...Leah will follow after their house sells.   WE WILL MISS THEM DESPERATELY!
 These are the Bokinsky boys...Andy and Timmy.  Timmy is part Gordon too.  WE love having him at our house.
 I really was happy all night....Darrin caught me at the end of the party a little tired, but I really am happy.
 Holly and David Whitmer...we love these guys...David is our Seminary teacher and Holly teaches in Primary...there are no more important callings than those if you ask me.
 And.....off to the airport.  
 Becoming Sister Gordon
 Awwwww.
 Last family pic.....sigh.
Daddy and his little girl.   My father would be so proud of her....IS so proud of her.  Way to go Em....we love you.
