Count down to Mexico

Sean is doing great in the MTC. He has been there 9 weeks and was scheduled to leave for Mexico on Monday but we just found out tonight (via a surprise phone call!!!!) his Visa hasn't come through:( He wasn't sure when he would get it, but he thought he would remain at the MTC at least until April 13th. He's excited to leave, but he seemed fine with the fact that he would be staying there a little while longer. It was so good just to hear his voice! He sounds great...very happy.

We got our first pictures last week and it was really fun to him as a missionary. He looks good. He's gained 11 pounds! He said there is always a lot of food and because they are studying most of the time, they don't much exercise in! That will change when starts walking all over Mexico!

Here's a few pics...
