Peter Priesthood
Ok, so we have been keeping a secret. Over the past few weeks, we have had to play dumb, make up stories and even lie a little. Today the secret was revealed in sacrament meeting when Peter (yes, my husband) was sustained in our ward as the new bishop. What an amazing past few weeks we've had... we truly have felt the hand of the Lord in our lives. Peter, I mean Bishop Waldron will be incredible and will be such a great blessing to our ward. I often pat myself on the back for choosing such a fabulous guy :). Here's to the next 5+ years of dedicated service by a truly wonderful man...
This photo was taken just a few hours after Peter was called... he was still in shock.

Congrats on the new calling! Missi, now you've got the bench and 3 kids to yourself on sunday :) There is always an equally special lady behind the man!
Wow! Congrats! I'm sure Peter will be an amazing Bishop!
What an overwhelming calling! We know your family will be blessed. You are a wonderful family.
holy crap!
ps-i have a secret of my own. peter has always looked like tom cruise to me, and i think he's cute.
good luck you guys! what amazing blessings are on their way!!!
So excited for you guys and no doubt he will do a fabulous job! I know how much the ward loves your family and will stand behind and support you 100%. You are amazing Miss!
He'll do great and you will be great at supporting him. I'll miss you in YW,though, when you get released. I'm just assuming that's going to happen. What an adventure you two are beginning. :-)
It's funny how people say "Congrats" during a time like this. When Adam was called last July and we were the only people who knew, it was so excrutiating! My sentiments are more like Mindy's, (Holy Crap!)and yes, he DOES look a bit like Tom Cruise!:-) The COOLEST thing about this is that your stake President totally has this right. You and Peter are right for the job Missy. I'm here for ya sister! Just give me a call!
DUDE! Call me when you have a minute, I already have stuff to confess to you.
Love,
nicholas
Congrats and good luck and lots of prayers for you and your family! :) Exciting times!
And good luck with the three kids on your own. I'm overwhelmed with just the one on my own! (My husband is in the bishopric.)
You guys can do it! I'm so excited and scared for you! Lots of love going your way! Maybe he could call someone to be the designated 'missi helper' during sacrament meeting. ;)
Hey Missi!
Thanks for the compliment on the picture of my family. And may I just compliment you on being the kind of people who are called to serve as a bishop/bishop's wife. Undoubtedly, you will be amazing!
Pedro!?! No puede ser... I'm just kidding, congrats... or condolences?
We miss you guys!

Wow. You are a family equal to the amazing calling. That would be hard to keep that secret!
Heard the news tonight. Not surprized, but wow! I guess that's what he gets for marrying a Hinckley. \"/
