Mission Farewell

Even though they don't call them "farewell's" anymore...I don't know what else to call it! 
Coelton's farewell was April 17. 
We returned from SLC Saturday evening and met my family at our house for some hamburgers, fries and milkshakes. 
Rhett's family, Justin's family, Shalean's family and Dad all made the trek over.
After eating and visiting for a while, Joel and the boys went to Jason's house and visited the Hammer clan. 
Jan's family, Julie's family, Jeff's family, Jarin's family and of course Jason's family all attended.  Also Mom and Dad Hammer and Brysan.
Some long lost friends who attended were Jeff Smith and the Knowles family.  Several of Coelton's friends attended as well.

Our meeting was at 11:00.  Caden spoke as a youth speaker and he also sang a song with the Priest's Quorum.  Coelton did a great job with his talk about how he prepared to serve a mission. 

Afterwards everyone came to our house and we fed them in our garage.  We had meat and cheese trey's and rolls and chips from Costco.  Everyone brought either a salad or dessert. It was a nice meal and we all enjoyed visiting.
Several families left before we could snap a picture, but here is some of the pics we took including one of Chloe and some cousins who stayed at our house.
