Pearls of Wisdom

The Sabbath & the Sacrament talk by L Tom Perry . . . but I liked his quote about the scriptures best:

Thought it would make a good bookmark (for scriptures . . .hehe) so I sized it as such, but it would work as a handout too.

How Brady asked Danee to Senior Prom

I have seen an idea like this before with 1 tootsie pop used with a Valentine card, so we decided to step it up and use the idea with a sucker bouquet so Brady could ask Danee to Senior Prom.  I took a picture of Brady and had it printed as a huge poster at Costco.  Then I punched holes in his hand to place lollipop sticks with homemade almond bark suckers (the suckers are not part of the actual poster):

It's says 'how you doin Francesca' in Spanish because it will be hanging in Danee's Spanish class 3rd period.  The suckers all have one word printed on paper wrapped in aluminum foil and folded very small - they say 'el promo with meo' - supposedly as a joke between the two of them because it's not really Spanish ;)

Missionary's Responsibility Handout

YW lesson #20, Manual 3 Understanding a Missionary's Responsibility

Handout 1

Handout 2 - dimensional

you could probably even trim the top of the skirt after it's folded so there's not so much excess:

or add a magnet where the skirt and shirt meet up on the back.  or add the quote on the front of the dress or hanging above or below the dress itself.
Could leave the skirt without folding it as well.  Small marks are at the top and bottom of the skirt.

Learning to use my SLR

Whitney doggie-sat Cannella and introduced her to balls - we assumed that she was too small to like them - LoL  And now she fetches a ball along with toys, ropes and sticks:

Whitney is teaching me how to use my camera.  I took this photo today in my yard:

 And in the (dandelion) garden:

Thought this was a cool picture of a bird's nest:

 A cool looking duck:

Liking the close-up function on my camera:

The eagle never did land or get closer, but the zoom lens does okay:

Now I am going to teach Whitney & Gwenaelle how to make crepes in their very own personal cooking class in return!   =)

Happy 18th Birthday Brady

Brady wanted chocolate cupcakes for his birthday . . . a little boring ;)  but yummy!

Brady's Eagle Scout Project - COMPLETED!

I wrote a few things by the pics but I am so tired LoL - if you really want to read or look again - check back ;)

St

Cannella had an amazing time romping around the fields and she got a treat every time we called her and she came, she learns fast!  hehe
