Congrats on your promotion son! And since he has been class leader since the first week, he has now officially earned a leadership assignment in every post he has been assigned. Uber, UBER proud of him!
A couple of weekends ago, Splenda's mom, who is serving an LDS mission at the Washington DC Temple, drove to Fort Lee, gathered the boy and took him back with her for the weekend.
She is a great photo-documenter!
The White House
The Lincoln Memorial
The Washington Memorial
Wait- another Lincoln shot
How awesome is this?
I'm sure he felt a great respect and reverence for this memorial
And now with the temple in the background. It's a gorgeous one!
On Sunday, they attended church and then she had a wonderful dinner with a belated birthday celebration for him shared with her missionary companions
They were also able to see the visitors center at the temple and get some great shots during the day
And again, congratulation LCpl Catmull! We are so happy for you, proud of you and know that the next adventure that is heading your way fast, will be just as successful as ever. You were born to lead. You were born for great things. You were born to succeed!
