Great news! Jayden recieved his mission call on Wednesday! He was called to the Vancouver Canada Mission, which is funny, because Jayden absolutely loves warm weather. He keeps his bedroom at like 85 degrees, and I'm pretty sure it'll be cold in Canada, but I hear it's beautiful! :) His call came in the mail Wednesday afternoon and we had to wait until that night when everyone could get home. Jayden was so anxious, and couldn't get over the fact that whatever was typed after the "You have been called to serve in the..." would determine where he would live for the next two years, and litterally change his life. It never gets old to hear a missionary read that first paragraph...I'll have to post the little video we got. It was pretty funny. :) All he kept saying was "like what do they eat there? Bison?" lol.
His area is pretty big, and reaches as far North to border Alaska! He leaves December 28th, (surprisingly soon!) We're just grateful he'll be with us for the holidays! He'll be in the MTC for 3 weeks, and then off to Canada. He's really excited and can't wait to say "eh" all the time ha ha. I just love my kid brother... He's the best, and I'm totally proud of him. In the mean time I'll be searching with my mom for some crazy winter coats and lots of layers for the scrawny kid...
I can't believe he is old enough to be going on a mission. Man that is so crazy, but so great at the same time! Go Jayden!
