Bellingham It Is!

Well Britton arrived safe and sound in Bellingham Washington. He is part of what they call a 3-pack. That means he has two companions. He is really excited but a little overwhelmed that he is not as prepared as he wants to be for the REAL WORLD OF MISSIONARIES. He lives in a member's home. He said it is very nice and beautiful. He said the area is gorgeous. He is a little concerned about the fact that they eat dinner at a members home every night and they have a car to get around in. He is thinking the suits won't fit for very long.

We were excited to get his letter. In fact, we should get another one tomorrow. He said he got his greenie package that we sent him, he said to tell Grandpa and Grandma thanks for the letters inside. I've sent him a Subway gift card for Valentines so that he can take his companions out to dinner sometime when they want to "EAT FRESH" and not gain too much. HEY LOOK WE ARE IN THE 600's NOW ON BRITTON'S TIME CLOCK! WOO HOO.

Jackson and Megan and I went to see Paul Blart Mall Cop tonight, it was a cute show and fun to relax with after a long long long hard stressful week at work. Megan and Jackson thought it was hilarious. I was the best mom and aunt tonight, I even threw in a dinner at McDonald's.

Hey we got a great new checking account at the bank that pays 4% interest on all your account balance up to $25,000. Call me if you are interested.

There you go, making it hard to remain a Barnes customer again! ;) I'm so excited for Britton! He has so many fun things to look forward to over the next two years. You know, you're my aunt too...:)

Yay for the 600s and for the mish update. How smart are you to send a restaurant giftcard?! Hopefully you'll write a missionary mom book.
