Called to Serve

My "Little Brother" Scott got his mission call today! He really isn't my little brother, but I have staked a claim on him to be the little brother I never had!! We have been close to his family for years and both David and I love them like they were our flesh and blood!! Infact, I would say that we are closer to them than most of our own families!


Scotty will be serving in McAllen, Texas...spanish speaking!! We are so very proud of him, and we are thrilled that he is going, but at the same time, we will miss him like crazy!!


Scott, we love you! You are a great example to us in many ways! Thanks for letting us be part of your family!!

what a fun Christmas you had!! I can't wait to have kids to share it with as well :) Also I love the pic below of you and David at 16! That is soo awesome! Very few people have a pic of them and their husbands at 16 going to a high school dance together. I am so envious of that!!! Also Aiden is getting so big! I can't beleive he is walking!!!

Oh my gosh! I can't believe Scott is old enough to go on a mission! I swear he just turned 16! Time sure flies. That's awesome.
