Hermana Justyce is loving being in the MTC.  Her companion is from Utah.  This is the red dot day--their first day in the MTC.
She is with two sisters.  All four will be going to Tuxtla Guitierrez, Mexico together.  They are just the second set of sisters to go to this part of Mexico.

This has got to be one of my favorite things--her name tag and her fingers:)

Justyce even road Frontrunner and Trax to Salt Lake City to get her visa.  She said it was fun to be back in her neck of the woods.
  Every letter oozes with her happiness for being in the right place at the right time.  I can't help but agree. 
But the best part?  She has finally started keeping a clean bedroom--look--everything is folded and neat in her closet!  I wish I could see that change for myself--well I will.  In 18 months.

Being a mssionary mom has got to be the neatest feeling in the world!

Today is the day we drove Justyce to the MTC.  We started with lunch at Chick-Fil-A with Jess and Tanner.  Then we headed to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple for pictures.
After saying good bye to friends for 18 months, we began the drive to Provo.  It was such a picture perfect day.  We had a few minutes before her scheduled arrival time of 1:15 so we went to the Provo temple and, yep, took more pictures.
The hardest part was when Justyce said to Damon, "See you in 3 years!"  It won't quite be that long but their missions will overlap so it will be a long time.  Then she got one last hug from her Daddy.


One last hug and she ran up the sidewalk with her cute sister host who also happens to be from South Jordan.  It is so incredible to see her go on this adventure.  She has talked of it since she was a little girl and now she can help change people's lives through teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.  I love my little missionary.  She is my Little Sunshine!

Today is the last errand day before taking Justyce to the MTC.  It seems the list never gets any shorter.  I am so excited to see Mexico through her eyes as she gets to know the people there.
