Touring the new Provo MTC

 Dad called me back in June after he had read in the paper about the potential to tour the new MTC addition in Provo.  He told me to reserve tickets, so I put it on my calendar to reserve the tickets! 
The kids and I went in August.  We were sad Dave couldn't make it but he had a super busy work day which we understood.  We had a wonderful time touring the facilities.  At one point, Austin said, "Okay mom.  This seals the deal.  I'm going on a mission!"  THe spirit was strong and we really enjoyed getting a glimpse of MTC life for missionaries.










Manila Trek 2017

Trek, January 2017.  I didn't want to go.
Trek, June 2017.  I still didn't want to go.
Trek, July 24 2017.  Still not happy about going.
Trek, July 30, 2017.  Emotionally stood in front of the ward and expressed that trek was life-changing and I was deeply grateful that Dave and I were chosen to be a ma and pa.

Here are some pictures of our trek!
