CHAD'S CALL!!!

Chad, my little brother, received his mission call on June 18, 2009. (It actually came to his Utah home, first, so we next-dayed the package to him in Texas.) After some confusion with the timing and a long day of anticipation for many Chad fans we finally gathered in our several different locations to hear him open his call. Chad's mom and dad were with the aunts and uncles on a motorcycle trip, his friends and half the siblings gathered in Utah, and the rest of his Siblings, roommates, and Texas friends were gathered with Chad at his apartment in Texas. It was 10:00pm and we were anxiously awaiting to hear where he was going to go!

This little video is when we were still waiting for a couple of his friends to arrive, and the uncles were setting things up for all of us to hear Chad through a phone or computer! (Huge thanks to them, by the way!!!) While we were waiting I asked each person to tell us their name, a state-side guess, and a foreign guess.

After Chad J and Kimball (two of Chad's dearest friends) arrived and gave their guesses we waited as patiently as possible for Chad to announce his call. This one's a long one!

Finally after Chad's call was announced and we'd all gotten off the phones Chad and Kimball had one last message for Chad. (The girls were going to each say something, too, but my card was filled.)
