Darby said she would not come and visit us in Florida unless we took her to Disneyworld.
Grandpa flew into town too so he came along with us. Jaxon and Melynn
stayed back so they would not miss school.
Ha ha...this guys shirt is awesome and so true!
We found an ice rink in Jacksonville.
Helping Darby get used to the cold again before she leaves!
Darby spoke in sacrament meeting, to give her mission farewell, in our ward in Jacksonville. Honestly, she wasn't too excited about speaking in front of a bunch of strangers. The problem is that her records are now in our ward and if she would have spoken in Utah it would have been in a student ward that is ever changing anyway. There was no good solution. This is one of those "sacrifices we made to move all over the place" situations.
However, I did invite a couple of families over the Sunday before so that Darby could get more familiar with some of the ward members (and our friends).
Darby did a wonderful job on her talk. She spoke very honestly and real about her feelings. Many people mentioned to me afterwards how they appreciated the thoughts she shared.
Darby was set apart Monday night. The next day she would be flying back to Provo.
Here she is saying goodbye to Jaxon before Jaxon went to bed.
Darby and Mom met up with Dad for lunch before taking Darby to the airport.
On Wednesday, Ashtyn and Darby had lunch with Brittany before going to the MTC.
But first they stopped at the Provo Temple to meet up with a childhood friend,
Kylee Hoffman, who is also entering the MTC at the same time.
Bye Darbs! We are going to miss you!

After arriving back home from taking Darby to the airport and feeling a little sad, I found a wonderful and much needed surprise on my dresser!
