Off to Fiji

Rick's parents left today for the Suva, Fiji mission.  They are going to be on a remote island, Taveuni, for the next eighteen months.  We are so excited for them to be on their way. They've been planning this for so many years and it is finally here. 
Jack and Jean gave a picture of them to each grandchild before they left.  Sage has hers right next to her bed.  All week she has been looking at it and saying, "I miss Grandma and Grandpa." Us too.  We wish them the best and are excited for the experiences that await them.

"Fiji or Bust!"

The kids were getting in as many hugs as possible.

I love and will miss Jack and Jeans yard.  We have so many great memories there.
Beautiful Wendy!
Sage
And they're off!
We love you and miss you!

Glad you posted. You inspire me to start up again. We will for sure miss Jack and Jean but like Ingrid says, "We are going to get so many blessings because they are on a mission." I think it is true but we miss them lots too!
