Hey Mom and Dad!! How are you
two holding up from yesterday? I am doing terrific!! It didn't make me sad at
all, just so happy I have such an incredible family. It was soo good seeing all
of you guys and how great you all looked. I can't believe how big Brielle and
Sophie are getting. When Sophie answered your phone mom I thought it was Jane.
Crazy! I can't imagine how much bigger they will be by Christmas. Hey that is
right around the corner... haha NOT! It will come so fast though. Mom you
looked great and Dad you looked great. We have one good-looking family that is
for sure!!
Well the hardest part about
yesterday was saying goodbye. Having to press the end button. But the nice
thing is it is not the end. It is still only the beginning. I am happy about that.
It was nice to hear from Grandma and Grandpa as well!! I am sad I had to go
right then though. Tell them hello and thank you for the post card. Tell all
the family up in Logan I say “what up”. Also, aunt Jill thanks for the wishes!
Tell your family hello. I can't believe David is getting married. That is
crazy!! Hey Lake Powell better be the same though!! Ha ha.
Well this week has been a
great week! I went on Exchanges with Elder Willis's companion Elder Gosh. He is
a good missionary. We had some fun times and good memories. Then on Saturday we
went on splits with our ward mission leader and his assistant. Our mission
leader is crazy ha ha. I went with him and we went and talked to a guy for 2
hours and the best part about it was he doesn't even live in our ward
boundaries! Oh well. Then Yesterday was amazing. Seeing all of you guys and
just talking in person. That is just the best. Mom you did a good job on
staying strong. Except for that first phone call. Ha ha. I think you said hello
and then started to cry :) I love ya! You guys are looking fit though that is
for sure! Keep up the good work.
Today we went disc golfing
again at 7. Dad thanks for the advice! I played a lot better today. After about
11 holes my arm started to hurt so I started playing pretty badly. It was fun
though. I didn't see any snakes, but everyone else did. We have water moccasins
here, which is very scary so I am super cautious. Then we came back and now we
are at the library. After here we are actually heading back up to Baton Rouge
for P-day. We are having a BBQ with all of the missionaries in our zone and
probably playing basketball. Then we have dinner today. It is going to be a
great day.
Well like we said yesterday we
will keep the letters short today. Just know I am happy out here and doing
great! I miss you guys like crazy, but this is where I need to be. Keep on
being the great Smith family that you are. I sure am blessed to have such a
great family who supports me so much. Well until next Monday! I love y’all so
much. Have a great day!!
Peace!!
Elder Smith
