Taylor got his mission call today! We weren't sure when to open it because Trevor was at Scout camp and we told him we would wait until he got home. But when it actually came, there was no waiting! Well, a little waiting. We had to wait until we all got home from work. Dean got a hold of Bishop Larson at Scout camp and told him we wanted to open the mission call with Trevor on the cell phone and he said they would try to call between 6:00 and 6:30 so we waited for what seemed to be eternity and he never called so we assumed they couldn't get coverage because the were up in Yellow Stone. So, around 6:40 Taylor just went ahead and opened it. We felt bad because we wanted Trevor to be a part of it. Trevor ended up calling about 7:15 and Taylor told him he was called to the San Antonio, Texas - Spanish speaking Mission and reports to the MTC August 25th. My dad, Taylor's grampa, John W. Skidmore, went to Texas on his mission 59 years ago. His mission was called the Texas-Liousanna Mission. He was very excited that Taylor is going there too. Wow! It was torture waiting for those papers to come and then waiting to open it. I was so nervous and sick to my stomach. Taylor had about 15 friends here along with my Nana and bumpa (my parents) and Grandma Beth and Papa Teral (Dean's parents) and his siter Mary Ann and her son, Alex. Jessica and Shawn were here too. Dean picked up some Little Caesars pizza, soda and some ice cream and Nana made a salad and some brownies. It was like a regular party! Some of Taylor's friends that came were: Lexi Nielson, Kiahna Campbell, Rex Measom, Brad, Scott Henderson, Hailie Barber, Colby Massa, Kacey Savage, Annalee, McKenzie Florence, Melissa, Kylee.
