Today was a GREAT DAY in the house of MYERS! Travis had a wonderful farewell Sunday. He gave a very moving talk as did others. Travis talked about being a christian and how he believes he qualifies for that title. He also talked about his heritage as a descendant of William Williamson. The best part was his testimony. It was pure and powerful. Wasn't a dry eye on my row of family! We also had two special musical numbers. One was "Oh How Lovely Was The Morning" and the other was a men's chorus of "An Angel From On High". Such beautiful music. We had a wonderful family/friend dinner after church. Mom brought everything for the taco salad, made homemade banana pudding, lemonade, salsa, chips, and Laurie brought Brownies and cherry cheesecake. Right after church we started preparing for the dinner and had some helping hands with friends Devin Bastian, Jacob Khalil,and family, Leanna and Krista Johnson. A special visit from his fellow Basketball team members made the day perfect. They re-sang the hymn "An Angel From On High" for them and then Laurie sang "I will Go And Do" at the piano. After the clean up (headed up by Tom...the hardest working/clean up man around!) we all visited and took short naps until that evening at 6 when we had Travis' setting apart as a missionary. We had an amazing time talking, hugging, sharing, and just enjoying each other. Families are FOREVER!
