I HOPE THEY CALL ME ON A MISSION...

SO....I guess the word is out....I TURNED IN MY MISSION PAPERS!! That is right!! :D On Thursday October 9, 2008 I submitted my request to serve the Lord, and no sooner than Wednesday October 22, 2008 do I expect to get my response!! I am SUPER excited for the call, the opportunity to serve and teach, the temple experience, the stress, the investigators to come, the blessings, the ugly but comfy shoes, the spiritual overload, the MTC, the happiness, the constant companions, the badge, the complete lifestyle change, the LETTERS, the new-found friends, just...EVERYTHING! :D Anyways, I just thought it would be appropriate to post my giddiness on our blog! :D

Also, we will be having a "call-opening party" TENTATIVELY on Saturday October 25th...I mean, if I by chance DON'T receive my call by then, the party will OBVIOUSLY have to be postponed (feel free to still stop by, tho ;) haha) I want you all to know that I would LOVE to have each and every one of your there...SO...I will let everybody know for sure if the party is on (if/when) I receive my call...and then I would ask that you RSVP so we know how many people to plan on and wait for before opening the anticipated letter :D I understand that all of you will not be able to make it (with the short notice, price of travel, and chaos of your own lives), so just know that I wont be offended, and I will let you know my destination via other means of communication :D

If you want to cast your bet on where I will reside til the year 2010, feel free to place it as a comment on this post, or bring your idea to the party and put it into the voting box by yourself. :D Thank you for all of your love and support...I wouldn't be the person I am today without the influence of each and every one of you!
