FIJI BABY!


My beautiful mother got her mission call today. She will be spending the next 18 months in the South Pacific, that's right, FIJI! We are so thrilled for her. She reports to the MTC in Provo in the middle of March. I am going to miss her terribly, but I know she will do an amazing job. Also, this means we are going to Fiji. How cool is that?

Fiji? That stinks, I know you were hoping for somewhere like Kansas or Delaware. Oh well, I guess you will have to visit her in Fiji and hang out on the beach! :)
Tell her congrats from us, that's awesome!

How exciting! I had no idea she was going. How Wonderful for your family! My mom went to Australia on hers and it really goes by fast! Thank goodness for email & ebay (I used to send her little gifts for Christmas & Birthdays). I'm so happy for her!
