Three Weeks and Counting

Well at least he will look like a missionary if we don't get anything else done.
Trent goes to the MTC in just over three weeks.
I know that it will be here in a blink of an eye.
We have finished most of the shopping, and
He should go to the temple this weekend.
Still on the to be completed list:
Update immunizations.
Extend his Driver's License.
Take care of a traffic ticket.
Get new scriptures.
I plan to spend the day with him tomorrow,
where I hope we can knock those things off the list.
We also need to get a family picture,
which means I need to get my gray hair colored,
loose twenty pounds,
and buy an new outfit.
Not sure I can get all that done in
just three weeks.
It is amazing how putting on a suit,
can change a boy into a missionary.

I suppose the bright side is, that with him
in Florida, I can mail him anything
we don't get ready.

He's a good looking guy!
It's amazing that you are able to get anything done for that event isn't it?
Not like you are bored and don't have anything to do!

Very nice! Very handsome! He really does look like a missionary now. (sniff, sniff) Where did our baby boy go?

Congratulations Trent! I know that you are going to be an awesome missionary.

If he looks it you're more than half way there! Good luck on the rest. The losing 20 pounds should be easy---it's those gray hairs I'd worry about:)

ahhh... remember about 3 weeks ago when I said I was going to lose 20 pounds and dye my white hairs for my class reunion??? Yeah, well... I streaked it blonde instead to hide the white and dropped by WalMart and bought a waist nipper... SO much easier :)

Ah, another missionary soon to be out in the field, how exciting. Yes serving state side is so much easier to mail things. My son is in Mexico and it takes a good couple of months for him to recieve any mail.

That blows anything homebaked.

Congratulations!!
