Since Drew will be gone for 2 years, we gave him a going away party for friends and family this past weekend.
We put up the map which showed where everyone had guessed Drew would be going to.
Puerto Rico!!!
We had fruits and dessert laid out for everyone. We had about 150 people come to say goodbye to Drew. The food was all gone when the night was over.
We had plenty of flavored waters so nothing had to be refilled during the party. We got to relax and enjoy ourselves without working! It was awesome!
Drew's Aunt Christy, Uncle Matt, and cousins Dane and Nicole came from Utah for the event.
Drew's Grams Allred and his cousins Lisa, Heather, and second cousins Finn and August came too.
We had a lot of family there including Aunt Roberta's and Becky's family too!
Drew had a ton of friends come from his high school including some of his teachers and administrators.
Here are some of his ward friends who came to support him.
Jeff made up some little cards with Drew's mission address on it for people to take with them. He even made some magnet cards too. Those were cool! It was a wonderful night and we really appreciated all the love and support shown to Drew. Thank you so much everyone!

What a fun party! The food looks beautiful and I LOVE the 4 water coolers! What a gorgous display!! Did you rent all of them (and the glass stand that they are on) or did you buy them? We have a water cooler like that, but I love the idea of the stand too. How fun!
WHAT A COOL WAY TO CELEBRATE. I LOVE THE ADDRESS CARDS!
