Abby arrived in Nashville this afternoon.
Abby had told us that she would call from the airport in Atlanta, but when it got to be about 25 minutes before her next flight, we gave up hope. So I started to leave for work when the phone rang. Who knew there is no such thing as a pay phone anymore? Some good member of the church offered his cell phone. And Abby was a little emotional, partly from being upset that she didn't have a way to call, and partly because it's a daunting thing to be alone (kind of) in an airport and talking to your family. Janice, Mackenzie, and Cori were all a little emotional because she was.
It sounds like Abby has had a bad stomach bug since Friday, but was feeling a lot better today. No appetite, but not feeling barfy. She bore her testimony to us in Spanish. It was touching.
Interesting photos. I assume President and Sister Andersen don't haul their rocking chairs to the airport. This must be at the mission office. It looks like a great group of greenies.
We're so happy for her safe arrival and look forward to hearing about a new trainer/companion, the mission, the language, etc. So many adventures ahead.
