LeNae and her favorite sister.... :)

So my cute and very sweet and sincere sister LeNae has decided to serve an LDS mission. We are all a bit surprised and shocked. She never really had interest in serving a mission, and she was kind of at a bit of a crossroads in her life and it's been fun to see how much she has flourished and thrived since making this decision and direction in her life. So she had received her mission papers and they were mailed here, but she was still up north.  So they were waiting for her for a couple of days. So on Sunday November 13, she planned a whole little mini-party with friends and family to take part of her opening her call. We would tease her about going to Boise, ID, or Las Vegas, NV or some kind of not to far away or exotic place. We all wrote down our guesses and I thought she was going to NY, NY American Sign Language. Nathan thought she was going to Virginia, maybe it was our secret wish of where we would want to go. Well the lord knows his children and he called her to BARCELONA, SPAIN mission. She kind of squealed with excitement when she read it and giggled with shock and amusement. So she read it out loud and we were all so excited for her. She studied abroad Spain two years ago and picked up the language pretty well. She has always naturally connected with latinos. She played soccer for years and the latino soccer coach LOVED her.  Also it's the best of both worlds, get to learn a very well known language, and yet still be in Europe. It's on the border of Spain and France, even part of her mission is in France, and her mission President is President Hinkley's son, Clark Hinkley. So the lord knows his children and what they need and where they would best be suited and place for them to serve. She will be a great missionary. Easy to talk to and easily loves people. Congrats LeNae!
