Elder Tanner

After weeks of anticipation; Elder Houston Tanner has received his mission call and will be leaving on August 22nd, 2007 to serve in the Concepcion, Chile mission.

It was a fun celebration tonight. My mom called me this afternoon to let me know that Houston had received his mission call in the mail. She said they would be inviting a few friends over for him to open it tonight at 8:00. We showed up along with about half the neighborhood & tons of family. It was a pretty big gathering & fun to see all the support for Houston. Everyone was super excited when he read his official call, and there were a few who had even guessed right. Houston has a cousin, Tyson who is also serving in Chile so the family is pretty excited.

I'm just bummed we wont be here for his farewell. But we're so excited for Elder Tanner!
