Proof! She Made It To Florida!

Yesterday, Eliza called from the Salt Lake City airport to report that she was up at 3 a.m., arrived to the airport at 6 a.m., and discovered her flight was cancelled!  She was re-scheduled for a flight out at 12:30, and was supposed to make it to Fort Lauderdale by 8:30 p.m.--a long day for someone who had been up for a fire alarm at the MTC the night before!  But she was in good spirits, and we trusted she'd make it just fine.  

Tonight, we received a phone call from a member of our ward who has a second cousin serving as a Senior Missionary with his wife in Fort Lauderdale.  What a happy, small world!  

He sent along this report:
"She is so wonderful and so excited and happy to be here. During new missionary introductions she gave a very beautiful testimony. She will do a wonderful work here in Florida. We are so happy to have her and I know the Lord is too. "
And this happy picture!

We look forward to hearing from Eliza, but in the meantime, it's a treat to know she's safe and getting settled in!
