Please share this with everyone else on Sunday Mom. I love you and everything here is going great. Yesterday was pretty flipping amazing to go to the Temple with the Glads and witness a sealing. In Mt Timpanogos as soon as you walk in you are greeted by a beautiful picture of our heavenly brother with his arms spread open as if he was going to give you a hug. Mom I have not felt homesick one bit and I glad for it. I may just stay here in Utah... It is so beautiful here. So yeah... Cory.. Staying in Utah...

He received his letter on 01/28/2012.
It was late when we got home and picked up the mail. Poppy and I started crying when we saw the letter. We both said "We are not ready yet"...... Holding the letter in one hand and driving with the other we pulled in the drive way. Cory came out to help with anything that needed to be carried in. He said whats going on, Looking at both of us because we were balling... I said,, YOU Got Your your Call... He ran over and took the letter from my hand. With a smile that out shined the sun... We all went in the house as fast as we could Poppy said, " Wait wait son I'm not really,, I I I have to take off my shoes"... and he walk in the bedroom came back out then walk around like he was lost. Finely he sets down..
Cory starts to read,,, But its the wrong page. Then he looks back in the envelope and pulls out another letter and starts to read again with a big smile on his face and excitement in his voice.. Dear Elder Cory J Mays .... He reads out very loud "I'M GOING TO THE SALT LAKE CITY SOUTH MISSION..... THAT'S SO COOL"....he falls to his knees and starts to cry.. "mom poppy Thomas S Monson sign my letter....... look.... the prophet the prophet... and he yells out THIS IS SOO COOL IM GOIN ON A MISSION"......

Off & Running
