They Like To MOVE IT MOVE IT!

On the day before Thanksgiving, my awesome parents found the tale tale big white envelope in the mail.  Their mission call came!  A little explaining:  A few months ago, they were contacted by a friend who is currently serving in the mission presidency in Argentina - he had heard my parents were interested in serving another mission and requested that they serve in the office with him.  My parents were thrilled, they filled out their papers and sent them in - totally anticipating a call to Argentina.


What a surprise to open the envelope and discover they were being called to:
MADAGASCAR, AFRICA - Humanitarian!


Admittedly a bit shell-shocked by this call, my parents are excited to begin their next adventure together. And we are SUPER proud to have such healthy, active grandparents who understand the true joy of service.
They were a bit confused about why we all start singing: "We like to move it, move it!"any time a discussion about their mission evolves.  So, on Thanksgiving we all watched Madagascar as we digested our feast.   They do need to know what they're getting themselves into, after all!

Congratulations Grandma and Grandpa!  
WE LOVE YOU!
