Thankful day #4: Mission

TRUMAN GOT HIS MISSION CALL!!!
What a great night we had gathering as family and friends for the big opening of the envelope.  Our home was crowded with people, just how Truman wanted it.
When the time came he was shaking like a leaf and he was crying as he read....."You have  been called to serve in the Manchester, England Mission......report March 24th."


The room erupted with congratulations and excitement.
This is the perfect spot for my Beatle-loving, Harry Potter-expert Boy.

I'm so thankful for missions and I'm thankful for Tru.

OH.MY.GOSH!!! ENGLAND!! How great is that. When I went to visit my parents while they served their mission in England I flew into Manchester airport. I.LOVE.ENGLAND. (I'll bet you couldn't tell) A boy from the WB 10th ward who graduated w/Truman is in England and I'm 99.99999% sure it's the Manchester mission. Congratulations.
