Matt Sullivan's Mission Call

We were very excited to get on the phone with our daughter Shelly's family to hear the reading of Matt's mission call letter on July 11.  He has been called to the Las Vegas, Nevada Mission.  He and his Grammy and Granddad are all very excited about his call.  Grammy and Granddad had their interview with Bishop Reinhard today.  We think we both passed! He will send this on to President Carver with whom we will have the next interview.  It is taking us a bit longer than it took Matt, but they want to make sure we old folks can "cut the mustard."  One final thought... what are the odds that Grammy and Granddad will get sent to Las Vegas too?

Family Visits

We are spending this summer before we leave for our mission visiting family who range from Texas to Illinois to Florida.  Right now we are in Florida visiting Susie's mother, brothers, and others.  It has been a wonderful visit, reading to "Ma" (91), whose eyesight is failing, listening to family stories, swimming, and working on things around her house.
