YAY

So I got to talk to Zack on the phone today... It was SO great to hear his voice. That was only the 3rd time we've talked on the phone since he's been over there. I asked him for an update on what he needs in terms of care packages.

(Side Note: Whenever anyone would ask I would always just tell them to be creative, but in terms of stuff he probably NEEDS I said chapstick and shower gel are definitely the safest things. WELL. When I asked him what he needed he said, "I could always use stuff, but don't send chapstick or shower gel, I'm good on those 2." HAHA. Oopssiesss.. ) SO, he gave me an updated list which basically just consists of phone cards. Again make sure they're international. I know one of his aunts just sent him a 550 minute phone card (THANKS!), which internationally transferred to 180 minutes. So that's kind of a bummer how it works like that, but that's why he needs them the most.

He said he's been doing really well otherwise. :) And we appreciate all your prayers!! Please keep praying for some fellowship for Zack and time to relax every now and then, considering he's been on EVERY convoy since he's been there (awesome. not really.)

Also, just for an update:: He said he has really manly hands b/c they're covered in callouses and cuts. So cheers to my manly Marine who is AWESOME.
