We love our missionary!


O.K., so Marcus, my little brother, has almost been in the MTC for two weeks, but I just got these pictures on my computer. We were all so excited for him to go, but we all cried at the MTC. When I see people cry I start crying. My mom burst into tears when they asked her to place Marcus' missionary tag on.
The night before, it was such a neat experience to be there when Marcus got set-apart. He bore his testimony and said he was ready to serve and he bore a sweet testimony of the Savior.
We are so proud of him and love sending same day packages to the MTC. His favorite has been chips and salsa. He said they had a fiesta several nights in a row. He loves the MTC, and will be leaving for Seattle next week.

I can't believe Marcus is old enough to go on a mission!! Isn't he still 10 or something? Wow! By the way...welcome to blog world! I love it! I can't believe how big Kylie and Dash are. Time goes by so fast when you are having fun right?

Hey! I'm so glad you're blogging! We have been sooo out of touch! Kylie looks completely different - it's crazy -she's just as cute as she always was - but SO grown up! She's darling. We didn't even know Marc was serving in the bishopric! Are you still RS pres? How is it going? I'm adding you to my page so I can check in regularly now - take care!

What's up, McCanns! Marco - How in the crap did you end up with such cute kids? Thank goodness you snagged Jessica, eh? Fun to catch up with you guys a bit, even if it is a bit of a round-about way to do it. Hope all is well...

Hi Jess! I enjoy looking at your blog. I FINALLY started one.

This brought back memories of when my sister Jenny left for her mission... it was the end of the world for me b/c I wouldn't be able to talk to my sister! Any way I'm sad you're leaving but we'll stay good friends being neighbors and all! Lets get together again, we had a lot of fun hangin with you guys.
