The suspense is finally over Alex opened his call last night. It was a great experience. We had all been feeling like he would be called to the United States and most of us thought Spanish Speaking. Selina called Texas - Spanish Speaking at the end of April (she won)! The Bishop originally said Argentina, but changed his mind yesterday to Texas-Spanish speaking. He does seem to know these things! Alex goes into the MTC on August 26 - we are hoping the Swine Flu Quarantine will be over and they will allow families to go inside again. Right now there is only drop off outside and a quick good-bye. We are hoping that Ken will find a new job this summer, and if anyone has a good paying job for Alex, we would part with him to be able to earn some money. He is working part-time here and looking to add to that. We are most grateful for the wonderful son he is. He has always been a great example to us and his friends. He always tries to do the Lord's will. His patriarchal blessing says he has a strong testimony and he will be instumental in bringing many to the gospel while on his mission. We are looking forward to a great two years -- I miss him already!
