Our call

On July  3, 2014,  we received our Mission call letter.   How exciting was that day!!!  Naturally our mail came at 10:00 in the morning instead of 4:00 in the evening.   We had invited Sterling, Aden and Owen's families to all come for the opening too.  No one could come until after 6:00, and it was actually almost 7:30 before we got to open it---I even tried to peak---but it was pretty peak proof!!!!

Tricia wanted to make a prediction---Close: by Vancouver, Washington; far away South Carolina!!   She hit it right on with SOUTH CAROLINA!!!!!!    So exciting!   Aden went there on on his mission and we actually picked him up and met a lot of wonderful people there.

On our way to Salt Lake--we get to go to the temple in Twin Falls with our grandson Tyson Olsen.  He is leaving on his mission to Italy in Dec 2014.  We are happy for him.  What a great way to start our mission.

We will be staying with my sister, Areta, in Utah, Saturday evening and Sunday; then leave for the MTC in Provo, Monday Sept. 1st on Labor Day.

We are driving to South Carolina on Sept 6th.  Staying at Rolinda and Ammon's in Frederick, Colorado; Saturday night and Sunday---leaving Monday to continue on
to South Carolina.
