This is the first post of our mission experiences. Larry and I have been called to serve in the Laie Hawaii LDS Temple for the period of one year. We received our call December 10, 2014 so it has been quite a wait. Now, six months later, we are ready to leave in three days. We will attend some training in the Salt Lake Temple for three days and then off to Hawaii. Yes, I have a little anxiety as to what we will be doing, meeting new people, living in a very small apartment, being so far away from my family for the year and knowing that only two suitcases each for Larry and I can accompany us across the Pacific Ocean. That translates to just a few pair of shoes, about seven or eight dress outfits, about the same for casual and a few temple dresses. I know I'll survive but it has been hard thinking of only having what I take with me. Those concerns aside, we are happy to have the opportunity to serve our mission in such a beautiful place with wonderful people. We are up for the challenge and excited for the adventure.
In this blog, my goal is to record the many experiences that we are about to embark on. I know that there will be many inspirational moments that we will want to remember so this will be our way of doing that. Feel free to follow us through this new chapter in our life together.
