Evan's Farewell Weekend

As most of you know my little brother Evan is leaving on a mission to Fiji. He actually goes into the MTC tomorrow!! His farewell was the Sunday before Memorial Day. He did such a great job on his talk. Seriously, I can't believe how much he has grown since I've left home. He will be a great missionary!!

Kyson learned so many things that weekend! I can't believe how big he is getting. Here are some of the adventures in Ephraim...

His first motorcycle ride with Grandpa (don't worry after this quick ride around the neighborhood by Dad decided to get him a little helmet for our camping trip... pics to come on next post).

After that first ride...Kyson was hooked. He figured out how to open the garage door and this is where we found him. Yes, he climbed up there all by himself and yes I about freaked out because he could have pulled the bike on top of himself. Grandpa told me to stay calm :)

Grandma taught him how to dribble a basketball. He is still working on this talent but loves practicing every day.

He also got in the "pool" with Grandpa and Grandma. At first he kept saying hot hot hot but he got use to the temperature and didn't want to get out.

Kyson also learned how to shave. How cute are these pics!!


Natalie "ruined" (aka dented) Olin's cowboy hat. Olin of course couldn't wear it anymore... so it became Shad and Kyson's. Thanks Uncle Olin!!

Ky always gets burned out when we are with family.... there is always so much to do.

My mom has all of the Sunday pictures of the family before Evan's farewell so if I ever get a copy, I will post. For now this is the only picture I had of Evan. Good Luck on the mission Evan. You'll do great!!!!

XOXO Melanie
