Bo's At SNOW!

We got to meet Bo's roommate, Drew.  He is from Grantsville and seemed very happy to see another roommate.  He was happy to go to lunch and Walmart with us and seemed like a pretty darn cute kid!  He said his nickname is Boo.  So now they have Bo and Boo in the same apartment.

The Maverik pose seems like our new tradition for our kids as they head to college.  Here we are filling up Bo's car as he gets ready to head out.  Of course he followed us because he had three guitars a giant amplifier and all his college stuff that could not possibly fit in his little Focus!   We had a few family tears before Bo left. (O.K. maybe more than a few.)  Amidst them Bo made a good point.  He said, "You would be more sad if I was staying, though."  I had to laugh through his tears and my tears and say, "Yes, it's kind of like the momma bird who has to push her baby out of the nest.  It's not fun or easy, but she knows she has to do it!"  I ditto the momma bird, sending my kids to college and on missions, is not fun and it definitely doesn't get easier!  Nobody tells you this stuff before you have kids!
