called to serve.

this good looking boy got the letter of a lifetime today! after much anticipation, excitement, and anxiety attacks (on my end of course!) Bryant finally got his mission call! this man is so amazing (it's so weird to call him a man yet he has officially become a man). how blessed i am to have the most loving, caring, genuine, and most amazing best friend to walk the planet! we have been through thick and thin together and i wouldn't have it any other way. i love him.

elder king has been called to serve in the ARGENTINA CORDOBA mission! he will report june 15th.

i know what you are thinking..june 15th? that's like 8 years away...i know. sucky. BUT, i cannot help but think that the Lord's timing is perfect. he knows how big of a breakdown i might be having hahaha. he waited to call bry at a time where i would be out of school but most importantly, i leave to peru 4 days after he reports. FOUR days.

bry wanted my dad to be there when he opened his call, which can get quite tricky. we had been waiting all week long for this call to show up and every day seemed to let us down. my dad is a UPS driver and he has pretty much the worst job schedule ever. he never seems to make it home until after 8:30 pm on a good night. bry got his mail today at 1:30 and was such a champ for waiting for everyone to come and watch him open it. the Lord blessed my dad today. he had the lightest day he's had all year long. he was able to make it home at 7 pm. a true miracle.

the Lord blesses us in such little ways. at times they seem so insignificant, but when reflecting back on it, they are the things that matter most. Argentina-get ready! elder king is coming your way!!
