Headed to the MTC by Ivy (with blurb from Mom)

Since the missionary couple is pretty busy, I thought I'd blog a little bit for them about the beginning of their adventure.

They were pretty excited to enter the MTC (Missionary Training Center) in Provo, UT.

Ethan and our family (Skinners) got to see them off.

There weren't even any tears! I think everyone was just too excited for them. 

Gram isn't short....






This is the only way they could hug Ian, to sandwich him between them. Even then getting a real hug out of him was hard, but they didn't let go til he gave a squeeze. 

And this is the best one I have of them in front of the MTC.

LOVE you, Elder and Sister Jacobsen!


Here's a little blurb from Mom (Sister Jacobsen) about their experience at the MTC:

"We spent a week in the MTC (Missionary Training Center) in Provo, UT, and it was a wonderful experience. We had such great teachers and for the weekly devotional we had Erich W. Kopischke, a General Authority of the Church from Germany. Ethan had several district or zone meetings with him when he was AP (Assistant to the President) in Croatia and really liked him. His wife spoke too and she was so funny with her German accent and the stories she told of life in the US, since their move to Spanish Fork, a couple of months ago. Anyway, it was a wonderful experience, one we'll always remember and love."
