The Call!

My brother Bryce is going to be living with us until he leaves on his mission. When we arrived he had no mission call. About 4 days later, my mom called with the good news...his call had come. She over-nighted the package and we received it the next day. Our plans were to webcam with my family in Idaho when he opened the call. However, the boys were headed off that evening to Detroit for the auto show. We decided that he could open it Sunday night. When he opened it ...it was awesome! He is going to the Brazil Porto Alegre South mission, which is the exact mission that my other brother Brent when to! It was an amazing experience! He is so excited! He leaves on May 20th and goes straight to the MTC in Brazil. He will be living here until the end of April! We are so excited for him! Congrats Bryce--We are so proud of you!

That is amazing! My cousin Mike Meiners and his brother Dave went to the same mission in Europe too! In fact I think Mike trained Dave. Anyway, I think my nephew Justin Green is in the same mission in Brazil right now. How funny would that be if they were companions and figured out they were both related to Harold Horrocks!!
