IT'S HERE!!!

Well, technically, it was here over a month ago. I'm just not keeping up with blogging like I had planned to. Here it is!!!! 

 "Dear Sister Silva, You are hereby called to serve as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Wisconsin Milwaukee Mission."

This is my mission boundaries. It covers about half of Wisconsin and goes into the top part of Michigan as well! 

I received my call on a Friday night. I was closing at Ross and the family was waiting for me at the Grandparents in Bayside. It was getting later and later and I still wasn't off. Finally I got off at almost 10 and then rushed home and rushed over to the grandparents. I got there and everyone was waiting for me. We got a sister on the phone and I opened my Call. I started crying and almost couldn't make it through. I was so happy and excited to see I was going to Wisconsin. I'm not excited however, for the cold and possibilities of Tornadoes. But as long as they stay away from me, we won't have a problem! 

I was endowed at the Medford Oregon Temple this past Saturday, the 25th. Scuff was also endowed earlier that morning. It was amazing to go through the Session with so many people that I love!

Yep, today was nothing like I expected. But some good things did come out of it. I was finally able to mail off the Lund Boy's Christmas gifts, and I didn't have to spend all day working my butt off at Ross (no pun intended.... or was it?) Sometimes you just have to go with the flow and hope to find a good documentary on Hulu....
