Nick gave his last talk in his ward today, well at least for the next two years. Mom sang a beautiful song, "Face to Face" and Sara received her Young Women Recognition Award. The family and Grandma and Grandpa Anderson were able to attend. Even though little Skyler was not feeling well Brandon, Katy and the kids came to support Nick. Isaac flew in on Saturday to surprise Nick and attend his talk before he left. Isaac is in his 4th year of Vet school and doesn't get time off but he was able to swap his rounds with another student at the last second to be able to attend and say goodbye to Nick. Aunt Dorothy, Uncle Rich, Joey, Jessica and Jeff, and Christy and Brad and the kids came to the house to visit.
Sara took mom, dad and Nick over to the Patriarchs home to get her patriartical blessing.
Nick was also able to finally receive his Eagle Scout Award. It took longer than expected but he finally got it. There was some problems with the paperwork because of their move to Elk Ridge a few years ago but he finally got it.
It was a big day filled with love and the support of family and friends. What a great way to celebrate Nick's Sunday before he left on his mission. We were also able to get family pictures because Isaac surprised us. Thank goodness for Sister Lynn! We'll post them as soon as we get them back.
