howdy.

my baby sister Ally has made the decision to serve a 1 1/2 year mission for our church. we are all so excited for her. I know she will change many lives, so I am happy to share her for a little bit. She opened up her "call" (a letter which says where she is going for her mission) on Friday and we all made our guesses as to where she was going. Kate said "Ally is going to Paris.... everything is wonderful in Paris."

Well, she isn't going to Paris, but to Houston, Texas! Way to go Ally, we love you "partner..."
