Uncle Jakey

I'm a little behind, but Uncle Jacob left us on the 6th to
enter the Missionary Training Center and prepare
to serve a two year mission for the LDS church in
El Salvador. He is working hard and doing really well!
We are very proud of him!

Before he left, we got to attend a Washington Nat's game
with him.... he got us free tickets to the last home game
with his active duty military ID. It was Ellie's first professional
sporting event. We had a good time.

He also got a chance to say goodbye to Phil, Paula,
Izzie, and William when they came through town!

Showing off his packing skills... or lack thereof. Good
thing he has nice, helpful parents.

Ellie was glad the cousins came to say goodbye to Jake, cause
she always loves playing with her big girl cousin. She also took
right to her Uncle Phil while he was here. Impressive for her.

Momma Garner with her fourth and final missionary son.

Then the whole clan. We love our Jake!

We were in the SLC airport on Oct 7th watching all the missionaries leaving to their missions. It won't be long til Jake is one of them. Our best to you Jake!
