Stick 'Em Up!

Recently, the girls were given the privilege to learn about gun safety.

They may have done some gun labeling in the process to prepare for the actual gun outing.

Don't Wait Until You Have Grown a Foot of Two...

The youth found out pretty quickly that they don't need to wait until they have grown a foot or two to be a missionary.  They can start now with their friends and their family.  Our bishop fireside in August treated the youth to a wide variety of speakers.  They were regaled with tales of conversion and advice from those a little bit wiser; that had been around the block a time or two.

“After all that has been said, our greatest and most important duty is to preach the gospel.” 

~Joseph Smith

  

Namaste!

After the start of the school year, it's nice to do a little bit of relaxing and re-centering, if you will.  Don't worry, they are still standing in Holy Places, just maybe a little more creatively now.

Finding Our Yeehaw!

So we are getting ready for the big ward BBQ tomorrow.  We did a little bit of decorating and jell-o making.  Katie does have the jell-o skills!  I'm pretty sure the poster making can be surpassed by none!  See y'all tomorrow!

Life's Just Beachy!

The beehives broke out of the 7pm routine and decided to head out to Del Mar in the morning.  I'm pretty sure everyone is glad we did!

I think everyone enjoyed the sand just as much as the water.  And no one had to be rescued by lifeguards.  I'm not sure if they all think that was a good thing.

Some wanted to get buried, others wanted to do the burying.

Brooke lost her head, but we found it!

Such lovely mermaids!

Joelle makes a killer sand castles.
