MISSIONARY LIFE

Trace contemplating how the word "fireside" will mean something else in Texas.

Doing best to prepare for his mission by getting plenty of rest
(wonder if he knows you can't store it)

We drive Trace to Utah four weeks from today. We met with him on Tuesday to talk about what he had left to do or purchase before entering the MTC and in his oh-so-familiar-relaxed-way he assured us all was cool and would be taken care of (i.e. partriarical blessing and endowments appointments). In our encouraging yet "knowing" how he procrastinates way, reminded him that he is to enter the MTC in five weeks, this prompted him to involuntarily suck in air with a gasp and his eyes shot open with reality. Yeap, that did the trick. He tells us he is excited as are we. Proud doesn't describe how we feel but it will have to do for now.
