We're here in Guam!

Hi,

Well we're here in Guam, staying at the Hilton Hotel because the mission Pres is out touring the other mission islands this week. We will be here until Monday morning and then fly to Pohnpei, our future home for 18 months.

The flights went well. But when we finally got here our names were called out while we waited for luggage and guess what?? None of it left LA when we did. So we have to go back to the airport tomorrow to get it. Bummer!!!

It's about 9:10 Friday night here, but 5:10 AM Friday for you, crazy. I've been going since 2AM Thursday when we got up to take the 3:30 but out of the MTC. I did get a couple of naps on the plane though. Dad wasn't able to sleep so he's out like a light right now. He'll probablly wake up at 3 in the morning.

Well, i just wanted to let you know we're here ok!

Love you all to pieces. MOM

MTC Drop Off!



The drop off at the MTC was very emotional, all of the happy and sad feelings of the moment mixed into one giant laughing crying good bye! We are convinced Hollywood couldn't have done it better. xoxo's Dallon & Sheridan

Our island paradise!


MTC Life

The MTC is a constant go, go, go. It's fast paced with great people and a great spirit. The islands are waiting, we're raring and ready to go!
