So today I went to an old roommates farewell and was thinking about all my amazing friends and family who are off serving the Lord on missions. They are great examples to me and I miss them all very much!! So I decided I would do a small tribute to all of them... here goes!!
Chaz!! My cute brother! He is 2 years younger than me- he's great! I miss his big hugs and quoting Mash with him! He still has a stinkin year to go! Serving in Texas and says y'all every other word!
Denise!! The first of my high school friends to leave! She lived just down the street, but was always at my house! She is on her mission in Australia- I can't wait to hear her accent! She comes home in March! Can't wait!
Jessica!! My fellow soprano 2 in Mads- she moved into my ward in 9th grade and we've been great friends ever since! Love her!! She is serving in England- I am excited to hear her accent also!
Summer!! Love this girl! We have been close friends since elementary school also. We have spent many hours hanging out and laughing about one thing or another- her letters are all so up beat and optimistic- love it! She is doing awesome in Argentina!

Emily! A great friend from both high school- we were in Mads together, and college-we roomed together- its fun having a friend who can relate to both high school and college life! Love her! She left for Brazil in July.
I didn't have a picture of just Megs (far right) - so I figured this would have to do, yes, all the girls in this picture are on missions except for me!! We have had years of choir together. She is in Finland- dang- I'm glad I don't have to learn that language!
Carlee- the first of last years roommates to leave-we seemed to get in a lot of water fights! She is currently serving in Ohio...
Shalyn! Another roommate this past year-we met on Project Inspire. She flies off to Chile this Tuesday! Good luck!!
The last of my last years roommates to leave-Natalie. Shannell and her husband came down for her farewell. Natalie did great! It was way fun catching up with both of them after! She is going to Brazil- leaves on Wednesday.

What fabulous girls! So, guess that begs the question as to why you're still here...oh wait! You're serving your mission in your own way, good girl!
Wow! Kenzi, you were right when you said a lot of your friends have left on mission. I agree with the comment above that you are serving your mission right here in Utah!
LOVE YA
ps it was fun to see Denise. I don't know her well but I know her sister Michelle. I love connections
