Grandma and Grandpa M. opened up the mission call last night. As you can see, they are headed toward the historical mission of Nauvoo, Illinois. We were able to share the big envelope opening with the family last night on the web cam. I'm so thankful for modern technology allowing us to participate. We are thrilled for Jake's awesome parents who embark on their LDS missionary adventures in June.In other news:
Here are a few ways my kids made me laugh today--
+When Cole is ticked off, he doesn't just say or yell "No!", he does it in this Michael Jackson, "Ow!" kind of scream. "Now!" It's funny. I can't help it. I want him to spin and moonwalk after he does it.
+In happier moments, Cole's inward sucking of air laugh and nose wrinkle is the best. I told him to dance with his stuffed dog. He walked in a circle with it and laughed at himself like he'd just told the best joke on the planet.
+Right now he's happily flying his "pane" (plane) through the air.
+Today our power went off for maybe a minute. Weird. Tessa looked at me and asked, "What's happening to us?"
"We're fine, honey. The power just shut off. It'll come back on soon enough," I replied.
She answered with, "We need to buy a new, helpthy house."
+I got Tessa new socks. She thinks she has won the lottery. (Socks with stars on them ARE awesome, to be fair.) She has been so excited to wear her new socks and jacket for the last couple of days and claims that she's "the best girl on the whole earth!"

How wonderful to be called to Nauvoo! Are they allowed to have visitors if you happen to be in town?
Your kiddos are adorable! Any chance you are headed to Utah soon? We'd love to see you!
Jake, tell you parents congrats that is awesome. They will be wonderful missionaries. I didn't know that your dad had retired, but I guess when you move away you fall out of the loop.

That would be such a cool mission! Congrats to them!
We so need to get a webcam and then everyone else in our family needs to get one too. Although St. George isn't as far as Texas...we can't just skip on up to go to things like that either.
