Elder Marshall Goodrich's "Tarheel" Mission

03-07-11

hey thanx for the package - it was great - elder smith made the brownies for me. ya i had a great bday - we had dinner with my favorite fam - theyre awesome and they made a cake called earthquake - it was good. thats crazy that half the fam r in our 20s - wow time is flying. yall r always having busy weeks but i like when things r busy - makes things go by faster. the kitchen looks good now. i was just thinking last week that yall got my papers when i was looking through stuff and i was like wow my fam already has my flight papers and stuff like that - it doesnt feel that my mish ends soon which is way weird.
haha thats funny they're still getting him and me mixed up haha. sounds like yall had a good time shopping and getting a few things for the house and the girls. im sorry for roselee and i know she understands and hopefully everything gets better for them. its hard to just let heavenly father take control cuz he always has different plans for us but he knows wat he's doing. thats sweet that yall r looking for opportunities to share the gospel - thats great. ya the black israelites r pretty crazy but w/e -they can think wat they want haha. wat u were talking to cameron about - its amazing wat ppl will do for us even if theyre not of our faith - there r great peeps everywhere and the south is full of them. the apostles and prophet always have stuff for us to learn - its great - i luv listening to their councils cuz they're for us to help us become better and happier as a fam
wow that is pretty weird that shes (miranda) gunna be in hs - things r moving so fast. it seems since ive been out things have happened so much faster than i realized - its crazy. ya it just matters if all we do and we'll be successful and im so greatful for the chance ive gotten to serve the lord - its an experience i'll never forget - we were talking with a member yesterday that im good friends with and he told us that he still thinks about his mission all the time so i know the affect these 2 yrs have on us - its crazy
ya i dont get the jewelry thing but u probably dont get my shoe thing either haha
that will be good when yall get the new car - now yall will be able to drive more comfortably
haha wow mom u got a gun sweet and ur right ur gunna have to learn how do shoot it looks like dad will be able to get more practice to help u learn - i see how u work dad haha jk
ya its hard to teach ppl and u know theyre missing something and we have it and they dont want it but they will eventually find the gospel sooner or later
ya i luv pres thomas - he's great and he's taught me a lot
well things r going good for me here and the work is going aight - its getting a little hard right now but things r gunna pick up soo. elder oaks is coming this friday and that should be a sweet experince
well thanx for everything - yall r they best parents ever - hope yall have a great week - luv ya a bunch
