In between all of our fun adventures, particularly between Easter and a trip to Mexico, Dallin also got everything done in order to turn in his mission papers!
In particular, he cut his long hair (which shows you how excited he really is to go on his mission!), and we took pictures of him in his handsome suit.
Ever since Dallin was a little boy he has wanted to serve a mission, and I can hardly believe that the time has finally come.
He has been preparing for his whole life, and began the papers process at the beginning of the year actually.
Wisdom teeth, doctor and dentist appointments, mission prep and temple prep classes, interviews, and all of the sections and sections of paperwork that has to be completed...but most importantly, he has been working on becoming a strong, happy, resilient, faithful, and obedient young man that the Lord can count on.
As Dallin clicked "submit" - I felt the next level of excitement and anticipation begin. I am going to miss this boy, but am also so proud of what he is doing.
We are expecting his call to arrive in the next week or so...so soon we will see where the Lord needs Dallin to "prune in the vineyard."
