OKLAHOMA!

My little brother Garrett, after months and months of waiting has finally gotten his mission call! He is going to serve in the Tulsa, Oklahoma mission....WAHOO! :)

Yesterday he called us and told us it had arrived...he is living with my aunt and uncle in Sacramento right now so after work we (dan, bella, myself and some of our friends) piled into the car and drove out there. It was SO much fun! :)

Poor garrett was on pins and needles the whole time. Yesterday afternoon he was starting to open it cuz he couldnt stand it anymore. He threw it across the room and ran out of the house and had my uncle go inside and hide it from him so he wouldnt open it. LOL poor kid. I think he was a little disappointed when he opened it, but Garrett, dont worry, that is where you are suppose to go! He is serving in 4 states, so that is WAY awesome. Plus, hello! it will be way easier to send packages and letters to you. :)

Love your guts gar!

That's so awesome! I grew up in Missouri and it was part of the Oklahoma Tulsa Mission! He's gonna LOVE it!! Who wouldn't love going to the heart of America?! :)
I also have a brother named Garrett (well he's John Garrett and goes by Garry but still it's Garrett :)
Good luck to your brother and that 's so great that you guys got to be there with him!

It isn't so bad out here, but he needs to learn what to do in tornado warnings, because trust me, they will come
