The MTC

Austin entered the Missionary Training Center on Wednesday March 25th at 11:30am. We were all there to see him off & ofcourse I had my camera to document the event! He was nervous but mostly excited! We took pictures in the lobby, then headed for the chapel where we sang 'Called to Serve', had a little service & watched a video about what to expect in the MTC. It was cool to see! They told the Missionaries that there is a rule that they have to write home at least once per week. So I decided right then and there that I am going to do the same thing! I don't have an address for Austing yet... (could whoever has it please leave the info on this blog?) Anyway, so I am blogging... Hopefully he'll see it before he's off to Peru! So, he's in the Provo MTC for 3 weeks, then off to the MTC in Lima Peru for 6 weeks. After they gave the closing prayer Austin looked at me & said "Oh crap is this really it?!"... haha, he kept saying that over & over, but deep down I know he was really excited! I told him to enjoy it & have fun, just because I know how serious he can get... lol! We love you Austin! Have fun!!! I'm going to continue to tell him that over the next two years, because I AM the FUN ONE afterall... lol!!!
Walking throught the doors of the MTC, the mission finally begins!
