Tony left for the MTC

So, this was Tony's last afternoon with us.  We had a little pow wow about why Tony would be a great missionary.  The kids were all spot on.  Koli said, "Tony already is a good missionary, so he will only get better".  I agree with Koli.  Tony has spent his last 2 years, especially this last year, doing missionary work and spending time with the missionaries.  He knows the lessons, he's learned how to relate to investigators, and he has 2 baptisms under his belt.  He also has been growing spiritually like crazy.  He is prepared and ready to be there.  I just wish I were prepared to be without him for two years!

And then life just seemed to have to go on.  

 Ryan had a concert


This was Ryan's favorite song






So, let me just say, it is really hard to tape a game and watch it too.  In this clip Danny scores twice, and I miss one of them.  He also scored the first kick off of the game and I didn't even have the camera out yet.  I will get better at filming - maybe. :)  The final score was 3 for us and 4 for them.  They continued to play on Sunday, but of course Danny didn't.  I'm not sure if another kid did either.  They may have had to play 1 man short.  I hate that they play tournaments on Sundays - oh well.

Well, it's Tuesday and I haven't heard from Tony yet.  I guess his P-day isn't Monday and I'm guessing it's probably not Tuesday.  Maybe tomorrow.  If I don't hear from him tomorrow, you know I'll be calling!
