Two BIG things

We had two big things happen in the family and they definitely deserve a separate post than grouped in with the end of March.

First thing...Cara is registered for kindergarten! She is so excited. She can't wait for August!

The next big thing...Uncle Eric got his mission call! He's going to serve a two year mission for our church! Everybody (mostly Grandma) was so anxious for his call to come. It was delayed a week and a day. Every time Grandma checked the mail it was filled with tension and drama. We thought it would kill her when it wasn't in the mail on Friday. (This was Aunt Becca's birthday...almost ruined GRANDMA'S own birthday which was on Wednesday!) Grandma went up to Brianhead with her church group and so Eric checked the mail all alone on Saturday and lo and behold it finally showed! I think he was really tempted to just open it up. He was patient and waited until Grandma and Grandpa were off the mountain but it meant he had to have some of his group for a dance he was going to be there when we opened it. It made it look all official because Eric was dressed in a white shirt and tie!

He opened it and made us all squeal because he couldn't help but see the area before he read it out loud! Mom thought he was going to pass out before he opened it because he looked so nervous!

Uncle Eric will report to the MEXICO CITY MTC on July 1 and he will serve in the Chile Rancagua mission. He is so excited and Grandma is sad that he goes to Mexico to start. She wanted him to go to Provo. That's okay! We can't wait to start writing to you, Uncle Eric!
