Today was a unique and special Sunday for the Herrick crew. The oldest nephew/cousin/grandson in the family is headed off on his 2-year church mission and this was his farewell today. It's so crazy to think this "kid" is going off into the world (actually Baton Rouge, Louisiana but it may as well be a whole other world from what I hear) with one goal in mind - to help and to teach people about our church. What an amazing experience this is going to be for him and all of us, his family, who get to live vicariously and follow along with him on his journey via letters, quick e-mails and an occasional phone call or two.
Well, beside the final send off for Logan we were able to manage one final family picture of the entire bunch - orchestrated poorly by me (please don't ever make me take any family pictures at high noon, outside in 115 degrees) - but with a little (who's kidding, I mean a lot of) help from photoshop I was able to get something a bit nice out of one picture.
