Still your hearts, ladies. If you could see his hands in this picture, you'd see them clutching his recently received mission call. If you could further see the details of said call, you'd see that beginning August 20, he'll spend the next two years of his life in this country:
He'll be in or around Angeles, which is somewhere north of Manila. He might be wearing rubber flip flops (if it's muddy) or a skirt (at the discretion of his mission president). He may or may not be even skinnier than he is now, depending on how the Lord sees fit to change his current dietary preferences. Here's hoping they have a lot of cereal in the Philippines.
We love you, Tommy, and we'll be practicing our Tagalog while you're away!
I don't think I replied to your text about Tommy's call, but I meant to!! I'm glad you posted it here so I could be reminded to congratulate your fam on the great news :)
