Sister O was to report to the MTC on October 12th at 1:10pm. The morning began with delicious french toast from Kneaders, and continued with some last minute shopping and a pedicure with her mom and older sister. Then everyone went to meet up at JDawgs. We ordered our jdawgs, and were waiting for one last sibling to arrive, when he called. He had been in a car wreck just a block away. We woofed our food, and drove down 800n, and immediately saw a fire truck and ambulance ... and our brother's car smashed up. It was 1pm, just 10 minutes before Sister O was supposed to be checked into the MTC. Our brother was very blessed to be injury-free. It felt like forever while we waited for paperwork to get filled out, and the other driver loaded up for a trip to the hospital (she said she felt "stiff" - we are hoping and praying that she is okay.)
We finally arrived at the MTC just before 2pm. Sister O was greeted by two Elders, who grabbed her bags. We exchanged last-minute hugs, and then left as she headed to the building. It was a crazy day!
So, Sister O is officially in training as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! She will be learning Spanish over the next 9 weeks, which should be interesting! She would also like everyone to know that she LOVES letters!
