OUR Mission Farewell Speeches and song at Church.

There and back again:week 2

Today we blessed a second grandchild, Wells Thomas Cullen. Our second week after being set apart as missionaries we are spending in Missouri with our son, Benjamin and his wonderful wife, Courtnie. Being a part of two blessings really drives home home how grateful I am for the power of temples. Temples are a place where families can be sealed together with priesthood authority for time and all eternity. this week will be filled with delicious food, fun games and yardwork. then on to the Mission Training Center in Provo, Ut.

There and Back Again: A Heather's Tale

So our journey began last Sunday. My mom was able to come for our actual farewell talks and song. All else watched it on Zoom. We left Sunday afternoon to stay at cousin Aileen's house near Tahoe to break up the arduous drive to Eagle Mountain, UT where we would stay to spend time with our daughter Spring and her husband Calen and her daughters, Caluna and Lillian. Lilian was being blessed that Friday. Also, our youngest, Ephraim is living with Spring's family. Uncle Ephraim is a favorite in that house. So much love in their home. We will leave our Toyota with Ephraim for the duration of our mission. Halloween was a delight. the kids were adorable 🥰 We will fly to Missouri for our Ben's son's baby blessing then return to Eagle Mountain and then drive to the mission training center.
