So yesterday morning I was able to join with my stake in a service project for the City of Mesa over by Riverview. See the Sea of Green? That's your tax dollars at work, everyone wore a green shirt like that. Our ward got to clean some alleys and then help pick concrete out of dirt so flowers could be planted. I can't wait to see what the area will look like later on.

These are my beehive friend (left to right) Natalie, Michelle, and Madi.

"Working in the alley, Going down down, Working in the alley, Whoops somebody slip down!~"

You can never go wrong with shadow puppets. "WOW"

Alex is always willing to lend a gloved hand.


Doesn't Whitney just radiate in the sunshine of 7 am?




I made sure to get one photo with me in it. But that's all you get.


(Left to right) Whitney, Hallie, Samantha, Cody, Tatum.


And finally the giant grasshoppers. So cute and so big, three inches long. I tried holding one but it kept flying away. O well. I had fun. Never doubt the joy of service.

Hello sorry I haven't submitted anything in like... actually when was my last post? *checks* Oh wow, that long eh? Alright then! This is another catcher-uper. Starting with... *drum-roll* Panda! The most adorable kitty ever!!!! No one will ever find a cuter kitty. However she's camera shy *believe it or not* and I consider myself very lucky to get the pictures I have of her. (Ask me to show you my cell phone sometime, its even better!)


Next is work! Finally I remembered to get a picture of the sign out front. My co-worker/friend Krystee and I changed it a couple weeks ago, sorry the deal is over now, we'll probably have to change it again soon.


This is Mercedes, she's one of my favorite boarders. Don't know what kind she is but I love her! Behind her is her companion Bently (yeah, the people must love cars), he's nice but jealous; aka. pet Mercedes and you get a Bently blockade in your face. Don't you love animals?

And this is Seamus. A little West Highland. He loved playing fetch, though he never relinquished the ball easily. Still he was adorable.



Now I get to the stuff we're all here for: my adorable family!!! Alright so Wednesday, Mom and I were babysitting while Steph was doing scouts, and so we all went to Sheepherder's Park. Lucky for me I remembered to put my camera in my bag that morning! Hehe~ I got some really cute pics, take a look!


I especially love the last one, good thing they all decided to work together and all had non-slippery feet! And now I bid you adieu, may life be full of little surprises - and may you all have a camera to save that moment with!

the following are pictures i took of the boys when i was babysitting on Wednesday. i was trying to find good poses and interesting topics for my art projects in AP studio since i've finally decided that i'm going to do my portfolio based off them. hopefully it'll all turn out ok.

the pictures are mine, and the boys are stephanie's and madison's (no fair).






(in this picture i'm going to add jayden holding his nose as the forth monkey. however he didn't want to quapperate when i took the group picture so he has a single that i'm going to use for me drawing. sorry i'm not submitting it here.)
