Someday has Arrived!

We discovered that there are 8 days in a week, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and finally Someday.  Someday has arrived for us!! 

We have been called to serve in the West Africa Area Mission.  We will be living in Accra, Ghana and serving the countries of Ghana, Sierra Leon, Liberia, Togo, Ivory Coast, Benin and Nigeria 

We began our mission at the Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah January 6, 2014.    Our first week was spent learning "Preach My Gospel", and our second week was in Salt Lake City for instruction in Family History.

We had a wonderful send off by the Gayton Ward members at the Upton's home,
December 29, 2013.   Had a fantastic time!   Couldn't believe all the people that came to wish us well.  We appreciate ALL of their support. 

A huge thank you to our children, their spouses and grandchildren.  Their love and support mean so much to us.  We are very excited and looking forward to our arrival in Accra, Ghana.
