The time has come, for Clayton to get ready for college. He's really enjoyed life as a high schooler senior and dragged for it not to end. Because of that, it took him a long time to even start thinking of packing and then many days to pack. He started with one large suite case, but that was not enough, so after 4-5 days of packing, he end up with two large heavy luggages, a very packed carry on, and a stuffed backpack.

He loved the BYU tie so much that he want to wear it at school. But the backing was falling apart, so FF taught him how to sew the tie. As you can see below, his patience wore thin.




on 8/25/24, Clayton was ordained the Melchizedek Priesthood to the office of Elder by Da. President Arnold was also there for the ordination.
The photo below tells a story of Clayton when mom dropped off his suit to be dry cleaned at ZIPS. He was supposed to take everything out from his pockets before giving to mom. When he got the suit back, he, realized that he left his temple recommend inside one of the pockets. He didn't find it when the got the suit back. So he went to the store, talked to the staff and amazingly they let him inside to the back of the store, to rummage through their trash. After many minutes, alas he found it, at the very bottom of the trash bin.

Clayton is taking full advantage of being home with his siblings and enjoying all types of food that he'll miss here, like Amish market fried chicken and fresh baked pretzels.

He also wants to eat at Rainbow Sushi one last time.
We went to see Cindy one last time and she gave us a lot of food.


The BYU college kids, Richard and Isaiah also came over including their family for last dinner. Per Claytons' request: Da's burgers.


The next morning at 3:30am, the boys luggages were loaded into the car. From this photo below, only the blue carry on belong to Brennan, the other 3 belong to Clayton.

....and off they boys went...to BYU college.
