Much anticipation for this special day and finally the call has here! Ivory invited friends and family over for the opening of the call. Everyone had made their guesses and we were so anxious to find out. Who would have thought the Minnesota, Minneapolis Mission - Spanish speaking? No one had guessed that! We were so excited for Ivory to be going stateside, but also getting the opportunity to learn a language and to go to the MTC in Mexico. She would have a little bit of a foreign experience and then come back to the good ole USA! Ivory was excited and nervous and unsure of what lay ahead. Her original call was to leave on December 18, 2013. I was NOT excited about that. Sister missionaries really only have to miss 1 Christmas, so the fact that she had to leave a week before Christmas did not make me happy. We were so grateful for the love and support and excitement of our family & friends on this special day.
