Mission Call

Although we are a little concerned, Gaile submits our papers

David finalizes everything, and we are still smiling.

Preparing to open the call. Thursday September 1, 2011

Response immediately after opening the call.

Thursday the mission call came. We submitted the papers on June 30th. We had to wait two and a half weeks for the stake president to get back into the country for our interview and then the papers were sent to Salt Lake City for the mission call. Then seven and a half more weeks to get the call. We are to report to the Missionary Training Center on October 3rd. There is so much to do and now four weeks seems like a very short time.

David wanted a piece of the action so he asked to be part of the security for the theater. I think he fits in very well.

I have waited 20 years to go to Les Miserables and on Saturday May 28th I made it. David and I were able to go to the Capital Theater in Salt Lake to see the production. The music was wonderful the story timeless but parts of the production were to lewd for my tastes. As David put it,"I can take that off my bucket list.

Burrito

We had a nice visit from Bert and Julie and Merrill and Meg. Taffy loves to drag Grandpa's blanket down the stairs and wrap up in it. Well, Merrill decided to go one step further and wrap the kids up as burritos. In the end Kai was wrapped up with Merrill. It was hilarious. We love to have the visits. This is the last day off for spring break. Time is going by so fast.
