Elder Devin Durtschi

Devin is on his way! He entered the Provo MTC on June 17th. It was quite the day for us as our first missionary went out. Lots of emotions. This is a big corner for our family. We miss him tons but when it comes down to it, we wouldn't want him anywhere else or doing anything else with his life right now. We are looking forward to his first letter....which better come soon, be long, and filled with details for his mother....and we will keep family and friends updated on him. He will be at the Provo MTC until July 7th, then on to Georgia!

His mailing address at the MTC is:

Elder Devin Durtschi

MTC Mailbox #190-0707

Georgia Macon Mission

2005 N 900 E

Provo, UT 84604-1793

Drop him a letter. He'd love it!

Here's some pictures from the day:

Devin's looks like a missionary!

I have a life-size cut out of Edward from the Twilight movie. We play jokes on each other with him from time to time...basically to startle each other. So Camille and I couldn't resist making him into a companion for Devin the night before Dev left by leaving Edward in the dark by Dev's bedroom door. We got him good! Unfortunately, Janell didn't receive the text message that warned her Edward was lurking in the hall that night and we inadvertantly got her too.
