(okay... you can stop with the drum roll... just read.)
my darling cute little wonderful brother of mine is going to serve a mission for our church!!
he is one of my bestest friends and i love him dearly and will miss him even dearly- er. But, i know this is the best decision he can be making at this point in his life! he has been DYING to get his hands on his call and it finally came in the mail yesterday... just to sit there for 6 hours until he got home from "practice." luckily it remained safe and unopened. the paper cut on his finger is proof he opened it himself.
anyway... i bet you are wondering where he is going!?!?!
GUATE-freakin-MALA!!
my brother gets to spend the next 2 years of his life in Guatemala City, Spanish speaking. What a stud. after hearing how amazing the weather will be, he told my mom "i'm going on a frickin vacation!" you bet i will be visiting him for a vacation of my own when he has finished his work, serving the Lord and loving the people of Guatemala.
derek--- i am proud of you and i love you a lot. i hope it is the best two years of your life. (aside from the one time we went to high school together). you're going to be an amazing missionary!!!
LOVE YOUUUU LONG TIME.
congrats to your brother on the mission call! Uh, it's our favoritest movie ever too! How awesome. one of my favorite quotes is: "Some guys just walk in the light you know?" hehe!
