Dalan's Update

Sorry Katie it has been awhile. We have been busy getting Dalan ready, we went out last week and got all of his white shirts, a couple new ties, another good pair of shoes, and lots of misc. stuff like, shoe shine kit, alarm clock, sewing kit, first aid kit, raincoat, etc. It is very expensive but worth it. I think we should start a missionary store in Rexburg. Ferrell's in IF know how to get ya, by having all the stuff you need, which by the way is soooo nice. We still need to buy him some shower shoe, slipper, don't want to put your feet down on yucky stuff kind of shoes. We got his pants pressed that were hemed and we also bought 6 pair of dress slacks and we have got them back. We feel blessed Ryan gave us a suit that doesn't fit him and it fit Dalan perfect. Yeh, there is a 400.00 dollar savings! We had it dried clean and he is set. We just worry about him growing out of his pants. He was complaining the other day that they were getting tight. He is growing so much right now. He defiently has hit his grouth spirt in the last few months. We figure a month on a bike and maybe the pants won't be too tight. He He! We went to Walmart this week and picked up some more sheets, blankets, and personal items. I think we are getting real close. Today we just got home from the Distribution Center were we picked up his temple cloths and garments. He is going through the temple on the 4th of March. He is really excited, as we are also. Last week-end Dad and Mom came and stayed with us. It was fun to have them stay more than just a few hours. Mom helped me and we got his 4 generation pedigree chart all filled out and ready to go. I just need to gather some family stories now. His farewell in on the 11th of April at 9:00 and he will be talking with the Mission President of the Pocatello Mission. He said today he was more nerveous about that day then leaving. He will do great. Bishop gave him his topic the other night and it is perfect. It is on over coming trials.
