In the last month Birch and I have both had a brother leave on a mission. My brother McKay is in the MTC and will be serving in the Argentina Buenos Aires West mission (middle picture, pretty obvious). He's number five out of seven kids in our family and the second missionary. He is definitely ready to go!
Brooks is Birch's youngest brother (far right in the family photo, green shirt) and is now serving in New Hampshire. His fun fact is that he was born in his mission (Maine) but hasn't lived there since he was a baby. What a coincidence!
Another of Birch's brothers, Gabe, just got home from his mission in Oakland, California (far left, white shirt). Gabe and Brooks missed seeing each other by less than a month, but Brooks was given permission to spend a few days with Gabe in his mission before he came home and Brooks left. Both of these guys are amazing!

I can't believe how much everyone has grown in your family! It is funny how we think of people exactly like the last time we saw them. I still think of Becca being about 2 and everyone else about 5 or 6. Is that Kai's little one?
Oh my goodness! I also cannot believe how much your family has grown. I was trying to figure out who was in that picture and then I realized it was all your family! CRAZY! Glad to see Kenneth still has his sassy personality! Best of luck to both missionaries! What and exiting time!
Congratulations to both your brothers!
Wow...I can't believe all these kids are old enough to be going on missions-- or home from missions! I feel older every day! :)
It is crazy how many missionaries you sent away & welcomed home in the span of just a few weeks. Thanks for posting on the recipe blog! That is so fun. And I am excited to get that yummy recipe. :) Any recent pics of Trevor? We think he's the man!
Wow Camille what an awsome family and so cool that they are all serving missions. I am still trying to plant a bug in my little brothers ear to go. He is old enough but debating...any suggestions =). Everyone looks so grown up and the picture of Kenny it totally him so much fun! It was fun looking at the pics thanks.
