Drum roll please.....
ANDREW JOSEPH JENSON
has been called to serve as a full time missionary in the
WASHINGTON
SEATTLE MISSION!!!
We were so excited to have Wednesday come this week because we were hoping that Andy would receive his mission call. The timing was up in the air though since it is General Conference. We weren't sure if there would be time before since everyone is so busy in preparation. Plus, the mailman always delivers mission calls to the door and on Wednesday he was 2 hours late! Cheri and Andy were going stir-crazy waiting for him, and the mailman apologized. He was also the same mailman that delivered Mike's AND Dan's mission calls.

We had a ton of family and friends show up for the big news. It was great to see everyone. Andy went and got donuts and chocolate milk as a treat that hit the spot. We were all surrounding him on the deck when he started to read the infamous yellow paper. Once we heard the mission call we all just knew that it was the right place for him to go. We had a list of places that people had guessed, one country and one state, and Terry actually guessed Washington state! They also were just there a couple of weeks ago when they flew to and from Hawaii. Andy is super stoked to finally have his call and he actually reports pretty quick to the MTC...November 17th!

We're going to miss you tremendously Andy, but know that you have lots of lives in Washington to touch and bring to the gospel. You rock our faces off!
