On March 21, 2013 I received my mission call.
We are excitedly waiting until all the families get here. I am surrounded by grandchildren.
From left to right: Shelby, Cody, Ty, Darcy, Luke, Elsa, and Eli.
The following pictures were taken from a video of me opening my mission call. I tried to load the video here but couldn't. Tracy's, Julie's and Mark's families were here and my niece and nephew Dani and Kevin who live downstairs. My niece Ali Shields also came. Kelly, Sandra, Laura and my sister Heidi were listening on cell phones.
I am called to serve in the Honolulu, Hawaii Mission.
I will be a Cultural specialist at the Polynesian Cultural Center. I don't know what that involves, but I am excited to learn! I report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on July 29, 2013.
This is when Mark yelled out "Mom's going to be a Hula dancer!"
I dearly love the Polynesian Cultural Center, it is my favorite place in Hawaii and I can't think of any place that I would rather serve than there. I feel very blessed. I can even wear Muumuu's and sandals, how great is that?

This moment was SO exciting. I could feel the Spirit so strongly. I knew it was perfect (how could Hawaii not be?). :) Mummus and sandals, here you come!!!
