After many years of hoping to join the church mission trip it was finally a reality for Brynne. And Elizabeth. One of us was gung-ho, no reservations. The other one of us was weepy with the notion of being separated from the rest of the Mattson family for 8 days, sure she was going to get violently ill, dreadfully unsure about 2 very long days in a van - shall I go on? When it was all over both of us said we would do it again.
