It's a tradition that the new missionaries have their picture taken on the front steps of the villa with their Mission President and Wife. We take the pictures with an iPad so the pictures can be sent to each of their parents with a quick note telling them that their missionary has arrived at the mission and all is well.
After pictures we have a special dinner. By this time the missionaries are pretty tired and we're lucky they don't fall asleep at the table. They have had a very busy day. The missionaries from the Spain MTC spent the day with the missionaries in Rome. The missionaries from the Provo MTC have jet lag. We did manage to give them two hours to take a nap. They are still excited and a little scared. Everything is good!
You look good Elder Stephens......Love you son, Dad....
