Dallin's First Pictures from the MTC

I was so happy to open the mailbox and discover that dallin had sent a camera card with these pictures on them.  I don't know everything about them all, but I was so happy to see them.  These were taken in the month of June, 2011. 

Dallin wrote this in his letter on June 30, 2011,

"So this last Sunday I got to pass the sacrament to the General authorities.  It was an amazing experience.  All of the 12 were there except Hales and Packer, then President Eyring presided, and some of the quorum of the 70s were there.  Then all of the mission pres, and their wives and all the wives of the generals too.  President Nelson invited us to stay and listen to the new mission presidents seminar afterward, because he is in charge of the missionary committee.  It was great to hear a different perspective as the 12 spoke to the mission presidents.  I was in the same room as all of them giving the sacrament to them and then hearing all of them bare their testimonies and as well hearing Elder Holland, and Elder Nelson and Elder Eyring all speak.  It was funny too hear Elder Holland talking to the mission Presidents, it was like they were little kids.  It was a great experience.  One that I will surely never forget.  They are all real men like me and you, but something different.  No not different, something more.  They are more than I am.  I never saw Pres. Eyring without a smile.  They are so filled with love and that I don't have the ability to comprehend"
