We dropped Brayden off at the MTC on September 23rd and it was a very emotional day for us all! Brayden is such a big part of our lives that it was hard to say goodbye for 2 years. But like Braydens favorite quote right now... "A missionary is someone who leaves their family for two years so others can be with theirs for eternity!" We all have to keep that in mind. He was a difficult one to let go.
We have gotten a few letters from Brayden since he left and he is doing great!!! At first he kept saying how hard the language was and that it seemed to be going in one ear and out the other, but now he has said he is starting to get the hang of it. He is in a companionship of three. He said he is getting along great with his companions. He is having a lot of fun in the MTC and says his testimony continues to grow each day and loves feeling the spirit everyday. He hasn't sent any pictures yet but says they are coming soon! We can't wait to get them! Brayden keeps saying that he needs more letters and packages with yummy treats! He likes the food at the MTC but they aren't really giving them enough to eat. He said he has lost 2 pounds since he got there. So he wants to keep some food in his room! So He would love you to send him packages!!!
Well here are a few pics from when he got set apart as a missionary and from when we dropped him off.
