Mission call day

after weeks of waiting the call finally came.  Mom intercepted the call at the post office, so Nic was highly disappointed when it didn't come in the mail.  Later that afternoon, Alli showed up with pizza and Nic got to open a pizza box that held his call.

                                 We had a great turn out for the opening,  lots of family and friends.

I didn't get a picture of the map, silly me, but we had everyone guess a spot on the map, one state-side and one foreign.  We had prizes for the winner.  We had a couple guesses in Argentina, but grandma Hall's was closest.

Now we move on to preparations.  Shots to get, stuff to buy and plans to make.  3 more months to pull it all together.
