The THOMAS Times: Mom enters the MTC!

Monday, February 4, 2008

Thelma Thomas entered the Missionary Training Center today. Here are some pictures from the event!

Here she is ready to "Go forth and serve!"

Here we all are-- notice Karen is the one with her eyes closed!

There was a really nice young man who helped her take her things to her room in this golf cart.

Here she is saying goodbye before she goes in!

Auntie Arlene and Mom with the balloons she brought for her.

There are a lot of cute messages on the balloons. My personal favorite is "Watch out for the buffalo!"
