Prior to Lexi entering the MTC most of the Bracken family met for lunch at Carrabba's (per Lexi's request.) Lexi reported that she slept just fine Tuesday night and 7:15 came a little early. Hopefully she is adjusting to the early mornings!
Here are a few pictures from lunch.
Lexi happily showing her cleaned plate.. "I would rather eat all my food and be slightly uncomfortably full then suffer through the thought of someone else enjoying my leftovers."
As far as the drop off at the MTC goes, here is Liz's report:
Les and I drove her to the MTC. Gave her a hug, said we'd
see her in 18 months and sent her on her way. I did shed a few
tears...after I shut the door. A few
seconds later we honked at her as we drove off past her and she smiled
that great Lexi smile...so there you have it. Lexi did want me to tell
everyone thank you for your love and support.
We are anxiously awaiting her first letter! Thank you everyone for your love and support!
She would love to hear from you!

Pink, my cousin went in the MTC yesterday, too--also going to France! His name is Elder Peel, and he's going to the Lyon mission. He's a good egg, tell him I said hi if you see him.
ReplyDeleteYou'll be great! I can't wait to hear all about your adventures!
Love, Brenner
