On Wednesday, Paden reported to the MTC. He'll only be there a couple weeks before flying to Texas. He was really excited, and it was fun to be there as he was dropped off.

It was fun listening to Marcus give Paden tips before he left...
...Including a warning for Paden to wear sunscreen. (Marcus didn't wear enough sunscreen on his mission, and that definitely didn't help since he was in Arizona. He had a new mole, which was noticed within seconds of his return, and it had to be removed--that was a traumatic experience...)
Kate wanted to take a picture of Marcus and me, but Marcus was too sad to smile. He said it was a happy type of sad.

After Paden was dropped off, Marcus, Derek, Kate, Cozette, and I went to see Harry Potter 6! It was pretty exciting...
Plus, we were first in line! We had to wait a long time, but we were able to pick the best seats in the theater.
It was an incredible movie. Worth the wait.
Overall, a five star day :)
I made a comment in your 4th of July blog, but I have to say we hope all goes well with Paden while on his mission. I noted that on the 4th of July comment, but we do wish him the best. What cute pictures of you guys. My very good friend that I worked with at the health department, son came home from his Barcelona mission on the 15th. Maybe you walked right passed them. We were down in American Fork yesterday for his home coming. The change these missionaries go through is amazing. They come back so grown up and full of wonderful experiences. We wish him the best!!
