Hey Mister Mailman!

Well, more exciting mail this week. Devin went down to the

mailbox on Wednesday to mail his acceptance letter, and returned

with another letter from the MTC. It's his visa application

to live abroad. He was given 3 days to get photos taken

and forms signed and mailed back to Provo. So last

night I trimmed Devin's hair, and this morning he went

to WalMart to get passport type photos. He's still wearing

his missionary attire here taking his application down to

meet the mailman. Next up: another form signed in front

of a Notary Public, sending in his passport to the MTC,

planning the day he wants to fly to Utah and requesting

a ticket for that, and...SHOTS. Lots of 'em. Oh boy.

Lifelong friends

The same day that Devin recieved his mission call,

Christopher Chord returned home from his mission

in Japan.  He has a wonderful spirit and bore a

powerful testimony, in Japanese!  It sounded so cool!

He and his parents brought back some very different

foods from Japan to share with guests at the open house.

Here these fine young men are reunited for a short couple

of months until Chris heads off to school and Devin heads

overseas.
