Heading to Zuni

Elder and Sister Dattage did not waste time in Kirkland.  Sister Dattage sent us this text:  "Third time in Walmart today.  We can't seem to get it just right.!"  They will get situated soon I am sure!!  I love Elder Dattage's smile here!!

This morning we received a text that Elder and Sister Dattage were headed to Zuni!  Sister Dattage said as they were getting ready to leave the trailer park they had been staying at she snapped this photo:
Her text read:  Elden is a natural.  Out neighbors at the trailer park.  We are preparing to leave here.  
My Dad has always has a gift for communicating.  But not just talking, really making people feel welcome and loved.  He is a natural!  This picture just made me smile!!!

As Elder and Sister Dattage made their way to Zuni they sent us these pictures:
They said this is beautiful scenery just outside scenery.  The bottom right was documentation that Sister Dattage could still get an icy Diet Coke!!!  We also received this photo:
More documentation that diet coke can be had!

The last photo we received was this:
Sister Dattage said these were of an Elder's muddy boots.  When I looked at these boots I thought of Elder Scott's words (I had just reread some of his talks when I heard of his death):  You can take your place among the greatest generation of missionaries the CHurch has ever had.  It will take effort and dedication.  It wil take faith and sacrifice."
March 2004, Be One of the Greatest
What a great time this is!!  It is such a wonderful time to be a member of this wonderful Church!  Those boots may change the hearts of many!!  Thank you to Elder and Sister Dattage for teaching the simple and precious truths!
