One Month!

Can you believe it? Elder Crockett has been gone an entire month. Let me tell ya, it hasn't been easy. But guess what? He's doing great! Only another month in the MTC, and he'll be headed to Taiwan for the next two years! So, here's some photos of his MTC life this past month...

Levi's bed. In his words, "I often hit my head because I'm not used to a blasted bar above my head" haha, disadvantages of being 6 foot 3 right?




I told Levi I was going to mail a letter to President Monson asking if I could go paint the walls fun colors. He didn't think that was the best idea, but I'm sure he'll come around. 


Leave it to Levi to take a picture of hand sanitizer. This is his life support. 


I'm not sure what the story is behind this one...? But I feel like this would be a fun "Caption this Photo" so you tell me. What would you caption this photo?




Guess who still gets to play the organ? This guy! It was like Christmas Day for him.




I think it's safe to say he's having the time of his life :) And though I miss him more than words can express, and I literally just teared up writing that sentence, I'm so so so proud of him and for his accomplishments. He is already an amazing missionary and has had so many great experiences to strengthen his testimony, and in return, my testimony has also been strengthened. I've always known missions are part of Heavenly Father's plan, and I'm now really starting to understand why. The love and happiness that comes from serving the Lord is unmeasurable. Two years is a long time, but it's a sacrifice that blesses the lives of so many, and that makes it all worthwhile.
