Caprice received her mission call to the Indiana Indianapolis mission on December 7, 2021.  She was attending BYU-Idaho when the call was emailed to her, and she asked us to drive up to Rexburg to watch her open her mission call that night.  I am so glad we could be there for her special moment!  We had all of our extended family watch her open it over a ZOOM call, so it felt like everyone was right there supporting her.  Caprice was so nervous to open it but had the biggest smile on her face as she read the letter.  When she announced "Indiana Indianapolis Mission" the Gregory's all started cheering!  Uncle Aaron is from Indian and has lots of family still living there, so he was pretty excited for her!  The funniest part is listening to Caprice trying to pronounce "Indianapolis"!  She botched it pretty bad but covered it up like a pro haha.  The feeling of happiness for her was overwhelming.  Caprice felt instantly a love for Indiana and was so excited that she could experience another part of the United States further from home.  Instantly, Benson started googling "Indiana" and researching all the facts about the city.  We looked up the flag, location on the US map, and found out that it's the 15th most populous city in the US .   We also looked up the Indianapolis mission and read about its boundaries and mission president.  It turns out Caprice knew about 3 people in that mission!  Caprice was endowed in the South Jordan, Utah temple (where Papa works), and she really wanted all her aunts and uncles to be there, esp. Jake and Kellie who were out visiting for Thanksgiving.   Brett and Melanie were on vacation and Chelsey and Gregory and Whitney were too far away to come, but were missed.
