Its called "Random Acts of Christmas Kindness." So I am going to do one at least everyother day with my girls. There were ideas such as pay for the persons meal behind you in the drive through, Tape quarters to arcade games, rake a neighbors leaves, take donuts to a construction site, leave a dollar in quarters in a row of vending machines, make sacked lunches and hand them out to homeless people and so on! I am soooo excited!! I LOVE doing service, but even more I LOVE watching my children give service. It makes me soo proud!! So I will be posting everyday or every other day with what we did, how the kids liked it and (hopefully) picctures! So STAY TUNED....Shereehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01019584992752884363noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4014679276199599830.post-68235764857403408822011-09-25T22:56:00.000-07:002011-09-25T22:56:19.242-07:00Okay I am back!Like many other things (okay everything) in my life I failed to follow through with my blog.

We had such a blast! We also went out to lunch me, my sis in law and our 6 KIDS UNDER 5! haha...it was fun though I promise. We went on a special day at Chillis where kids eat free. So,all together we paid 20$ for 2 adults and 6 kids and appetizers and drinks!! Our original bill was 50$!!<br />

I LOVE that Orem has a FREE fair! I mean seriously, I dont think anywhere does that anymore! Even the tickets for the rides were 15$ for 20. And each ride was only ONE ticket! I was seriously blown away at how cheep this adventure could have been (yes, I said COULD have been...we ate a LOT of good food :) )<br />
<br />
The girls had so much fun riding the rides. Even "I" is big enough to ride the rides with her sisters. They wanted to ride and ride and ride all day long. It was so cute how much they loved handing the man their tickets. "A" and "J" even went on a kiddie roller coaster! "J" was by far te smallest kid on there. The other moms were looking at us like we were crazy, but I was a proud momma!<br />
<br />
We will DEFINETLY be coming back every year! What a good time! One of my favorite parts was that there was no alcohol served. I always hated the combination of children, rides and then random drunk people when I went to the rodeo in Houston (Dont hate me Cami! I do love everything else though), so this was a breath of fresh air. Good, wholesome, family fun!<br />

This boy and his family move me. I can't really put into words what i felt as I watched the video of Cole. His parents are amazing examples to me. When we did the bake sale fr Cole I sincerely saw the light of Christ in their family. Their love for each other and this boy is so incredible and so withstanding of any struggle it is inspiring. My testimony was strengthened when I read from the babysitters blog fundraisingforcole.blogspot.com how not many things stir a smile with Cole. one of the few things is when he stares at two specific pictures. One of his parents and one of the temple. This little boy is so close to our Heavenly Father, and such an inspiration to me to remember what is most important in my life.

The weather was seriously PERFECT. So, after a long day of errands we decided to get our neighbors downstairs and have Root Beer Floats. "A" was so confused when I told her we were going to put ice cream and pop together. haha. And then she went around telling everyone "We are going to put ice cream in a cup and then ROOTBEER in the cup and the we are going to EAT it!!" It was like she thought we just discovered some great new practice...haha. But it was really nice, we sat under the carport, ate and talked to the neighbors. Tons of fun and tons of calories!! <br />

"I" and "J" were asleep, but "A" and I went into the Food Bank got a cart and brought it out to the van. Together we filled the cart completely. It felt good to be there donating. Representing our friends and family that helped raise a whole cart full of food to those struggling. One guy that was helping us said "you are really teaching your daughter something special." I almost started to cry. I am soo grateful for the oppurtunity to serve and for my children to serve with me.<br />

I'd say I have probably gone to the movies with the girls maybe 6 times. But Pooki loves to take them and they usually go when pooki babysits. But today i braved it!! We saw HOP, the girls loved it. Pooki got each girl 2 boosters and stacked them so they could see (don't tell them but it was also so they couldn't get down.) They were so cute..during the movie "A" kept getting s excited that she would shriek! "I" even sat in her booster for about 75% of the movie eating her own stack of popcorn (I know I am a horrible mom and should not let her eat that) and Raisinets! Yummy! Nothing like "MOVIES AND CALORIES!! <br />

But that was the PROVO library and this time we went to the SALT LAKE CITY library. Going to the SLC library is much more then a trip to read. The architecture there is amazing...I am able to enjoy some cultural diversity and some beautifully unique characters (sorry i know i know i love the abercrombie blondes in provo too haha). I saw one homeless man crocheting a purse with grocery bags. It was amazing!The kids got to read in the caves they have on the children's floor and were able to play outside by (and in..shh don't tell anyone) the fountains. They also watched "BABE" in the storytelling room. I guess every Friday in June they will be having a free movie for kids! This time we were the only ones there..but that made it even better. I didn't have to worry about getting the stink-eye from so overbearing parent with perfectly boring children.<br />
The girls also enjoyed spending time with their cousins there. "A" has a cousin her age and "j" has a cousin her age too..they are BEST friends! Soo cute!! <br />

<br />
I don't know if any of ya'll know this about me but I have permanent marker obsession! I LOVE to write everything in permanent marker. So, I was really excited when i found this pack of five mini permanent markers that go on your key ring. That same day I was in the kitchen doing the dishes and the girls were in the living room playing. I should have known better when it was so quiet. I cant be too mad though...I shouldn't have left them for so long and I shouldn't be stupid enough to keep permanent markers lying around! <br />
<br />

The girls were excited as well to return to "climb" the mountain. After going to the Falls we took a drive through Provo Canyon. It was so beautiful. It is this time of the year that I am sooo grateful to be in Utah. It was a sunny 70 today with a refreshing light breeze and everything is so green and blooming! We saw Deer Lake, Provo River, all the mountains and even horses (the girls' highlight). <br />
I also wanted to include this quote about service that really stuck out to me when I read it the other day....<br />

And it was the day of our long planned and many hour labored-for BBQ. I was excited to see the turnout there was just the right amount of people (Holla Nelsons, Banks, Annisis, Hunts, Barrios', Clarks, Gilberts and Lilywhites)! Everyone came with bags packed with canned foods for the Utah Food Bank. Thank you everyone for being so generous!<br />
<br />
While I was searching all over the Utah Food Banks website I found some interesting facts. 1 in 8 children live below the poverty level. 350,000 Utahns risk missing at least one meal a day. The site said that the average person that comes in is a marrried, emplyed parent who is stuggling for a short period. It is so sad to think of children starving right near us. With all the wealth our country has and our abundance of resources it is hard to believe that children in my very own community are going without food.<br />
It makes me so grateful for what I have. I love my family. I love my husband especially! He is willing to go to work 55 plus hours a week and go to not one but TWO schools to better our lives and to make it possible for me to stay home and raise our children. I am grateful for Shaun's great job. I am grateful that we are not in desperate times like so many are around us. After Memorial Day, I am reminded how grateful I am to be an American and how grateful I am to those that have either died or put themselves at risk for me everyday. I am also reminded after the BBQ how grateful I am that lately my eyes have been opened to the good in people. So, many people were willing to come and bring canned foods and help me with setup and cleanup. And while we are talking about things that I am grateful for let me just say.... I am so grateful for the knowledge of the gospel, the atonement and the Plan of Happiness. I am so grateful, too for the knowledge that I have that Heavenly Father loves me and that he sees me and all my imperfections and loves me anyways and sees my potential as a daughter of God. <br />

We hiked up the beautiful trail to Bridal Veil Falls. "A" was so cute with her gloves and grocery bag hunting for garbage on the trails. I was really impressed that there wasn't much garbage at all! The trails, river and waterfall were so beautiful. I was so sad when my camera died after like 2 minutes into the walk to the actual trail. Oh well! A and J also took their shoes off and played in the little pond at the bottom of the waterfall! They are crazy though, that water was freezing and it wasn't warm outside! Kids are fearless in the name of fun! This day was seriously filled with beauty....from my kids discovering the outdoors to Heavenly Fathers beautiful creations. Even the hike with 4 kids under 5 was so beautiful and rewarding! We will be going back lots this summer.<br />

The girls decided who they wanted to send a Thank you card to. A chose Grandma and Grandpa and J chose her cousin. They had so much fun coloring pictures on the card. A wanted to spell everything and make it look like a "real letter." J in all her glory wanted to use a black pen and scribble everywhere!<br />
Another lesson that came from this adventure is how the mail system works. A was so interested in what all the words were on the envelopes and why we had to put the flag up on the mailbox. It is such a treat and blesssing to watch A learn. she soaks up everything. She is always asking a million questions, so she can understand every detail and reasoning. What a cutie!<br />
Also, my friend Cami (Holla) wrote on Facebook today that "Gratitude changes your attitude." I can tell you that that is true. Even though the thank you cards were an activity for the girls, it really helped my attitude as well. It was just what I needed! <br />

But who cares...lets be honest I ushuallly opt to snooze the extra 2 hrs and not go to the gym anyways.....<br />
so anyways..<br />
<br />
I decided that I hated the word "experiences" so I have changed it to "adventure"..hope you like it.<br />
<br />
Onto the actual reason I am writing..well blogging. We went to the library today. We chose to read books about adventure #4- gardening and Memorial day. To be honest it was really me reading children's books in the childrens section with 4 little girlies (babysitting 1) running in circles around me. I just kept on reading and occasionally one would come and sit next to me to hear a few pages. Maybe I should work on my story-telling voice ;). A was totally excited about a book she picked out about how ice cream is made. "From Cow to Ice Cream" by Bertram K. Knight was a great find and I plan on using it for a future "adventure." Pooki surprised the girls towards the end of our adventure and took us to get ice cream. The girls left the library totally excited about their checked out library books and icecream to come. I am hoping to start to check out books for each "adventure" to help deepen their knowledge and love for each "adventure".<br />
<br />
Sneak peak into adventures in near future...<br />

He started by taking ALL three girls with him to pick up some plants and gardening tools. They picked strawberries, tomatoes, blueberries, cucumbers, green beans, watermelon, cantaloupe and a few others that are escaping my mind right now.<br />
<br />
When we got home we found out that our neighbor is an expert gardener! So lucky for us he helped us throughout the entire process. We are sooo grateful to him.<br />
<br />
The girls had so much fun digging in the dirt and planting stuff. They found a great little game where they would poor water all in the soil and make a little mud bath! They were definitely very dirty at the end!<br />
<br />
I love this experience for the girls. It is one that will keep on giving us opportunities to work as a family..and also EAT as a family! <br />

I made the frames with 5$ frames frm Walmart and spray painted them white. The design inside the frames is contact paper that I got at Walmart also. I found all the vases, candles,lamps, potpourri, baskets and the actual side table at the Provo and American Fork DI. The table setting is a silver tray from the DI, a white glass bowl from the DI, a vase from the DI and flowers from my yard.Shereehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01019584992752884363noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4014679276199599830.post-80711057344285755492011-05-17T07:43:00.000-07:002011-05-17T08:00:55.334-07:00Experience #3<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxgl23ZIgpyR3Obhyxxsd0_SWUrIkGdRTt2iJndoRX0TJEMro9XgyS3pz7POKWQ12FC__UssQt1WwXybD05JDyu3pbBHFk4af-kjE0REaN75gOGFgAaRd7V7cSi1v2mIQgDGcd0zR9fqY/s1600/IMG_1767.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxgl23ZIgpyR3Obhyxxsd0_SWUrIkGdRTt2iJndoRX0TJEMro9XgyS3pz7POKWQ12FC__UssQt1WwXybD05JDyu3pbBHFk4af-kjE0REaN75gOGFgAaRd7V7cSi1v2mIQgDGcd0zR9fqY/s320/IMG_1767.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>On Monday I was driving down State st. in Provo when I saw a sign - "10$ Glitter Toes and Buy One Get One Free!" I swirved the car oover 3 lanes and pulled into JJs Nail Academy. A and J got to get their toenails "sparkly" as A put it. They were so excited and mezmerized the whole time. They asked question after question to the poor workers. But in the end it was really fun.<br />
I know this isn't exactly championing for world peace or raising awareness for some horrible disease. However, it was a total blast ad I am going to file it under "Building Family Unity." For a family that does their toes together grows together! HAHA! I totally just made that up!<br />
And yeah...JJ's nails did a GREAT job I totally recommend them and for that price you better run there!Shereehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01019584992752884363noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4014679276199599830.post-76251534362822741192011-05-15T18:29:00.000-07:002011-05-15T18:29:14.716-07:00Bake Sale for Cole (experience #1)This was my first attempt to get my children involved with the community. I am trying to get them to experience new things. Not just fun recreational things but character building expereinces like holding a bake sale.<br />
<br />
I was so lucky and blessed to do a bake sale for Cole Keller. Cole is a little boy who suffers from a rare seizure disorder. He will be having brain surgery in a couple months to try to help with the seizures. He and his family really touched my heart and moved me to action. I decided that I would do a bake sale with a couple of the ladies in my ward and our children. Well within a couple of days there was over 1200 people invited and I had people all over the community reaching out to help me and this little boy.<br />

The day of the bake sell went great. We saw so many generous people give of their time, resources and money for Cole. One man dropped a 500$ check into the donation box not saying a word. We also had a handfull of people pay 100$ or more for a couple of cookies or cupcakes. We were able to raise 3600$ for Cole!! Thank you to everyone that helped! I really could not believe the amount of good I saw that day. It trully inspired me to be a better person.<br />
