Entering the MTC

Elder Jones was to report to the MTC at 12:55 p.m today, June 20, 2012. His mom told me he spent the morning packing last minute things, cleaning up his room, bringing his bike down to his room (and cleaning that), doing his laundry, and staying busy to make time go by. He got it all done, and Mom & Dad wanted to take him to lunch, but he didn't want that. He just ate a sandwich at home as his "last meal" before entering the MTC/mission field. Weirdo!!! :) Then it was off...off to his next chapter...

 The MTC :) Missionary Training Center...
 Apparently things have changed in the last while...they took the signs down that most Elders would stand by and pose by!! So this is the sign Elder Jones got!! :)
 Final shot with Mom & Dad...
 What a stud huh!! :) He was very anxious to get going and just GO to the MTC. The guys out helping them said he didn't really have to wait til his "set time" to go in...and that he could go then...to which Mom said..."NO, you're not taking him any sooner then you need to" :) But Elder Jones just wanted to go in!!

 He was sick of doing pictures and just wanted to get on with it!! But he was good to his Mommy and posed a few more time!!
 Then it was get the bags/suit-cases...say final good-byes and give hugs...(to which they had 2.5 minutes to do that)...

 And he was off...officially entering the MTC...
 God speed Elder Jones!!! You will do GREAT things!!! Good luck on this journey...you are loved and admired by many!! :)
