Called to Serve

Wednesday was probably the most exciting and emotional day of my life thus far. 

For starters, my sister-in-law gave birth to my new niece, Kinley Ann.

Then later that afternoon while studying in the library, my mom texted me to inform me that my mission call came.

I immediately started crying...... in the middle of the library.

I was so nervous and excited and scared and anxious and a whole lot of other emotions.

Wednesday felt like the longest day ever as I waited for 7:30 to come so I could open my call and see where I will be serving for 18 months.

My friends from Provo and my family from Sandy met at my sister's house in Lehi to hear me read my mission call.

"You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the  LOUISIANA BATON ROUGE MISSION. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 18 months."

"You should report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on Wednesday, August 22, 2012. You will prepare to preach the gospel in the SPANISH LANGUAGE."

In the days leading up to receiving my call I had countless number of people ask me questions like "Where do you want to go?" "Where do you think you'll go?"

I really I had no idea nor did I care but I NEVER would have guessed Louisiana!!!!!

I am so excited though!!! I can't wait for August 22nd.

I should probably start learning Spanish though :)
