Meeting Eric

You might remember me telling you about a missionary who wrote last January after his mission in Romania "this isn't a proposal, but Sora Thompson is the best missionary in Romania" and requesting that we add him to the missionary letter forwarding list. In July after Grandma's Camp he came to Florida to check things out.


He didn't know it, but he had to be put through the Thompson testing system to see if he was good enough for Debbie. Of course, first of all he had to pass the horse lovers test...


then the water lover's test...




the bubble catching test...


and the adventuresome explorers test.


He also had to pass the relatives worthiness interviews. (Not all of these are relatives--just the row he is sitting on. If you click on the picture to enlarge it, you'll see Chrissy and Randy doing their family duty.)


Last of all, we went to Layton, Utah to meet his family. Wendy and Debbie are on the left. The rest are most of his family. We also checked his reading history. He has read all the Louis L'Amour cowboy stories, Mom Caroly's favorites. He's passed all his tests so far.
