It's all good

June 23, 2013

HEy family!!!

Sure love ya'll. Mom i'm sorry you had a dream and had to worry about me a little bit! But no worries nothing bad happened to me yesterday! haha i had to think really hard about that, i was wondering hmmm did something bad happen to me?? but it was all good!

This week i was really busy because i had to go on 2 exchanges. 1 on tuesday with an elder from my district and for lunch that day we had cafe rio and we met up there with other elders and we got there after them and they said that we just missed seeing bryce harper! i was like oh cool who's that?! haha they were all shocked, it reminded me of the sandlot haha "the great bambino" it was really cool. if you don' t know who he is, he's a pro baseball player, really young, really good and lds. he got rookie of the year his first year. I don't know how active he is but he was the one who walked up to them and gave them $60 haha and then drove away in his nice mercedes haha! so that was cool! except he said that he would hook them up with tickets...i kinda hope not so because they were saying if they did get tickets they would go! i just hope they get President's permission first haha!!!

my other exchange was with elder ochoa! he's a spanish ap. he finishes his mission in 2 months! its really crazy. but he's doing good! it was fun.

on friday we had our zone conference and it was really good! i love them. i love hearing from president and his wisdom ha. at lunch during it a newish sister missionary sat by me and we were talking and found out she's really good friends with cousin jay! i guess they went to high school and college together. Her name is shawna richardson. if you can tell jay to write her that would be great. Its under the normal mission address on burke. so if you can pass the info along!!! it was pretty cool.

but yes!!! it was a requirement for all missionaries to watch the leadership training! haha you should have heard the chapel when they showed the dc north mission. haha! it was really excited at first (as they read the dc part) then sighs of "oh man" haha so close!!!! i was looking in there to see if i recognized anyone...just their mission president who i met at the temple. he's nice. then i was trying to see if i recognized any of the missionaries in the choir...but i didn't! haha. but like dad i got emotional too watching it. it was really good. we were all talking and hoping that that wasn't President Packer's "goodbye" he is such a great man and you just know of a surety that he has literally given his whole life in serving God and others. That's something i want to accomplish in my life time, for people to say that of me!

i think i mentioned this last week that arnoldo's uncle died..and they have been super busy with that so we have to push off his date til the 30! so if ya'll could keep praying that it all works out! satan is getting in the way...but we can overcome satan with God's help!!!

This past saturday was elder moodie's b-day!!! happy bday big guy hahah!

i'm glad summer mike enjoyed camp helaman. i really enjoyed that as well. i enjoyed working with Justin. it was fun!

well i think thats about it for now!!! pretty happy for rsl, even though i don't really care too much. i do still love soccer though!!! haha

love elder lifferth!!!

ps that last picture is of our apartment...we got pranked haha. the other missionaries in our complex are bike elders and wrote on our car "just married" with hearts and smiles haha...and we were biking out and all of a sudden everyone seemed to come outside and saw it and saw us and were like oh you 2 just got married?! congrats! we were like nooooooooooo!!!! haha really embarrassing. so we got into their apartment and got them back..then we came home and they got us back again hahaha it was really funny and there wasn't any bad feelings!!!
