The meet-n-greet for his flight, according to what I can tell from google, is in front of a restaurant named Panopolis.

Just DAYS to go....

There was a time when I thought this would NEVER get here....Elder Guthrie will arrive in RDU at 5:40pm on Monday, March 28th! As I write this, that is close to just FIVE DAYS FROM NOW. We are head over heels in yellow bows around here.
Anyone who can be at the airport PLEASE come. I know it is a long way to travel. We were hoping for New Bern just because more of you could be there to greet him as his feet touch NC soil for the first time in over 2 years. As for me...I'd go to Timbuktu.
From Jordy's email this week, he is busy too. Enjoy the pictures, for the end of this blog is near.

Here's his email.

here are some fotos of the week, i had to go to leon on thursday to sign some things, take pics and stuff, ill be going again this thursday, i dont know if ill just be staying there for the rest ofthe time, probably so, im gonna send a package home before leaving, and ive already almost got everything packed, bit nervous about the whole change country ordeal, but thats how the cookie crumbles i guess. enjoy the pics. Couldnt write yesterday because we ran out of time and all, washing clothes, going to the center to buy a big mexican hat and a zarape!!!! its pretty big the hat, im gonna try and sent pics home, of the big hat, sombrero, its pretty big also a convert should be receiving the preisthood next week, that would be coool, keep up the good work, whats dads number again, and see you next week

21 Days to Go!

This is such an exciting time for Elder Guthrie all who love him. Last night we got a phone call from Mexico! Turns out it was Elder Roberts from Jordy's generation. He's the one that looks like Obama. He called to tell us Elder Guthrie's flight plans.(He also said that Elder Guthrie is a really good missionary.)

Jordy will leave Mexico early on the morning of March 28th and following a 4 hour layover in Texas will arrive in Raleigh at 5:40pm. Anyone who wants to be at the airport is welcomed. The next day he will see the Stake Pres and be released.
Today on the Missionary Moms website I frequent a mother titled her entry "Leon Questions" so you know I clicked on it right away. Upon reading it, I learned that her son and 9 other missionaries, currently in the MTC, got their VISAs approved and will be leaving for Leon in THREE WEEKS. It is really weird to think that just a little while ago I was that mother. Where did the 2 years go?
Enjoy the pictures. He and his companion look like they get along really well.
