Well dang.

We got a notice from the bishop that Chris' mission papers got returned because 

his hair wasn't short enough in the photo. (Too tall on top and touching his ears.)

I'm the one who "loosened" his slick-backed hair because I wanted it to look

more like him! Oops!

Again, he had a good attitude. 

Our family went out to dinner for FHE (and watched Star Wars 8) last night.

Marty was telling Chris that the time you go out on your mission is every bit as 

important as the place you go. He said even weeks can make a difference

because of your MTC district etc.

When Chris found out his photo was rejected, he said some of his other friends'

photos had longer hair. So he is choosing to believe that he needed to

be assigned at a later date and that it's all God's Plan.

I love his positive attitude. I call it Faith. Trust. Patience. Obedience.

Nick's got his Eagle Project underway.

He made this flyer and had his troop help him pass it out at church.

We hung copies in a couple of local bike shops and at City Hall today.

Dan and I posted it on our Instagram accounts and he posted on NextDoor.

We've got the most responses from Instagram so far and a few from church!
