 Also on Feb. 20th Savanna turned 13 years old.  The exciting thing is that it snowed and had a double rainbow on her birthday.

 Jaycie and Jake had MORP.  It was girl ask guy and the theme was "Time Worp".  Jacyie and her date were Star Trek.
 Jake and his date were 40's sailor and girl
 She looks so grown up.

 This past weekend Jake's volleyball team had a big volleyball tournament.  Wolf Howl Invitational.  30 teams.  Mesa High's boys volleyball team won the whole thing!  Mesa's #1!
 Also on Sat. March 2nd Jake got his mission call in the mail.  He didn't open it up until 9pm because he was at the tournament all day.  We made it home at 8:30 pm.  He showered really fast and many friend and family came over to watch him open it.
 Jake has been called to the New Zealand, Auckland Mission.  He reports to the New Zealand MTC on July 4th, 2013.
 There's New Zealand on the big map I bought for everyone to guess.  No one guessed New Zealand.  Shelby my niece guessed Australia.  So she was the closes.
 Jake and his called signed by President Monson.
 Sorry don't know how this got in her but it's a good thing.  Jaycie finished soccer in February.  She was the starting Goal Keeper.  She did a great job.  So proud of her.
