Her last few days she was so busy with gathering last minute supplies, saying goodbye, and packing, but we managed to make time for one last traditional Big Fat Greek Wedding extravaganza! we even got greek food to eat while we watched it :)
The next day she was set apart and officially became Sister Hansen. We continued to work at last minute tasks and finish packing up her things. Luckily we were able to squeeze in some time to celebrate the 4th of July with a BBQ and sparklers!
That was also our last night together and we of course slept in my room together and stayed up talking, reminiscing, laughing, and crying. Then at 5a.m. we woke up and headed to the air port to set her off.
It was truly one of the hardest goodbyes i have experienced and it is difficult to imagine not having her at home and being there to talk to or hangout with. However, even though i would do anything to have her back with me I know that she is needed and she is serving the Lord. The people in California are lucky to have her :)
