Florida, It is

She opened the call last night! She is going to Jacksonville, Florida. We are so excited for her!
It was funny because after she opened it, she started reading it and then she stopped right before she got to where she was going, and got kind of emotional. Then she started laughing and said, " Its funny, because I know where I am going, but none of you do!" We all started laughing. It was really great. She is really happy with her call and so are we.

We had everyone make a guess of where they thought she might be going and put a flag on the map. It was so funny, because we had some great guesses like Antartica and Iraq. I love kids. They are just the greatest.

Once again, we have so say Thank you to so many people who are so supportive. I think we have the greatest support system in all the world. People drove from quite the distance away in the snow storm, just to see her open the envelope. So thank you everyone, we appreciate all of you for being so supportive of her and us. We love you all!

I wish we could have been there! I feel bad since we were one of the only ones NOT there. She'll be a great missionary, I'm so excited for her. But sad for me!!

Yeah! I am so excited for Rachel! She will be such an awesome missionary. Wish we could have been there! I think that you would really like digital scrapbooking. Krista too. I use Adobe Photoshop Elements and you can actually download a free trial (30 day) on their website. On their website there is a little tutorial that kinda shows you a little what to do with the whole scrapbooking thing. If you get want, I have the best website for downloading free kits. It is in my links section on my blog (ikea goddess). If you have any questions at all I would love to help! Love you guys!
