I'll Go Where You Want Me to Go!

So we all made guesses about where Bryce would be called on his mission and I've never posted the final list or announced the winner (who was closest) so here it is. (sorry the map picture is sideways, but I'm not going to try to fix it - i feel lucky it's even on here at all)

The guesses were: Dad - Russia
                                 Spencer - Russia (cuz it is orange on the map, his fav. color)
                                 Luke - Kiev, Ukraine 
                                 Danny - Taiwan
                                 Julie - New England States
                                 Lindsay - Ireland and Harlem, NY (2 guesses were allowed)
                                 Mom - Argentina and Florida
                                 Chad - Florida
                                 Christy - Chile
                                 Emily - Chile
                                 Katherine - New Zealand
                                 Clayton - Australia
                                 Conner - Brazil
                                 Lucy - Chicago
                                 Camille - Madagascar 
                                 
                                 
                                 

And the call is to - MEXICO, LEON MISSION! Bryce gets to be the first one to learn Spanish! So Romanian, German and Spanish in this family. Wow! (Dad and I have been saying we wanted to learn Spanish for years! Dad ordered a computer program - will we do it now?)
 
S0000 - the place picked that is closest to Leon Mexico is actually Florida! (Steve's mission field - cool!) Which means Chad is the winner ( Florida was my 2nd choice-can I share?) 

The BIG PRIZE will be awarded you at Fentons on Feb.16th. Excited?

Yeah!! Chad is excited for his prize but I'm not sure if he's willing to share with you, teasin :) Can't believe my little bro is going to be a missionary. It will be so wonderful to be in the temple all together next Sat.

Marilyn! It is your OLD friend Lari. I loved your Christmas card and kept it and finally looked at your blog. I read all my kid's blogs but I have never started my own. I LOVE seeing your kids and sharing some of your excitement. My boys are the 2nd and 3rd oldest and so have been home from missions for a long time. I am jealous! I still hope one of my last 3 girls will go. Kami (my next to last) is in Kiev or is it Kiyv? for 5 months. She is teaching english on a humanitarin something or other. Did someone in your family go there? I saw that it was one of the places guessed. I guess I should get your email address so I don't waste so much space on your blog. It is SO GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU!!!!! Love, Lari PS I want to come and visit. Oh if you do have someone with interest in Ukraine you can look at Kami;s blogspot at kambriasmith.blogspot.com. She has lots of pictures and interesting comments.
