Quick update

Quinn: Mission call arrived on Friday.  He had to have three friends live on three different phones, his sister on Skype, and all the other Georgias and Ariases present but quiet to open the envelope -- that was quite a feat!  He's been called to the Oregon Eugene mission, which covers most of southern Oregon and into northern California and a bit of Nevada.  Required gear includes raincoat and boots.  When I said I'd buy him an umbrella with smiley faces on it, he said it had to be conservative.  Conservatives smile too, right?  A conservative, smiley umbrella to brighten the day of each liberal who sees it.  He enters the MTC on November 14th, so we've got a lot to do between now and then -- haven't bought a thing yet.
