The Call!

Wow there is nothing like it in the whole world...waiting for a mission call that is. It arrived Friday right before lunch...no one was home but me. I found myself just staring at it. It ended up being around 4:00 before everyone got home and together to open it. Matt was so excited and nervouse at the same time that his hands were shaking so much he could hardly open it. Arizonia Tucson Mission spanish speaking!!!!!! He as so excited. It's funny that the minute they read that they can feel that that is where they are suppose to be. He leaves October 7, 6 weeks after finishing up summer school at BYU. That is just enough time to get him ready to go! He is going to do miracles there. Arizonia you are getting a great missionary!The call
Getting ready to open it!



We couldn't be happier!


Zachary made this video for his brother, he is really going to miss him!

That was an awesome video. Thanks for sharing. Just a side note though. You don't pronounce Tucson with the C sound, it is pronounced with a long u sound and forget the c is there. That gave me a chuckle. He might want to bone up on other words too that will make people laugh. No g sound in saguaro it is a w sound, no l sound in cholla or Ocotilla, it makes kind of a y sound. ;0}

Next to your volume prompt, you need to put a "need tissues" warning :) Your whole family are such wonderful examples to everyone. I know wherever any of them go to teach the gospel that they will do a wonderful job. They have had wonderful parents as examples. I hope one day my boys can grow up to be worthy priesthood holders as yours have!
