And She's Off!
Hello everyone! My name is Tiffany, and I am Chelsea's slightly shorter, much more brunette and a little bit older sister. I am in charge of all of Chelsea's social media accounts over the next 18 months. This blog is where I will post her weekly emails, and pictures for anyone that wants to read them.
For anyone that doesn't know, Chelsea has chosen to serve a religious mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She has accepted the call to serve in the Washington state, Federal Way mission, speaking english. What this means is that for the next 18 months, she will be serving the people of Washington by teaching them about Christ and the Book of Mormon. The people of Washington are lucky to have her. Chelsea is taking time off of school, dance and work to pursue this passion of hers, and I wish her the best of luck! She will only be allowed to have very limited contact with family members, and will communicate through email every week.
Today she enters the Missionary Training Center (MTC for short) in Provo, UT where she will be trained for the next two weeks, before leaving for Washington. My parents, Chelsea, and two of my brothers started the road trip up to Utah from Austin, Texas (aka the best place on earth) on Monday morning and they arrived in Utah last night.
I'm so excited for Chelsea to have this opportunity, and to learn and grow so much as a person over the course of the next 18 months. Although I will miss my twin, and my children will miss their Aunt, I know that Chelsea is right where she wants to be. I'm so proud of the choices she is making, and can't wait to hear all about it! Good luck Chelsea! May God be with you, and keep you.
