My Earring Business!





I make a lot of my own earrings, and one day as I was showing them to mom, she suggested that I start selling them. So, I have now sold 4 and am hoping to do more. I go around house to house selling them,  either right there or by an order. I'm also planning to get a booth at Alpine Days and sell them there too. So, here are some of the ones I've made. Sorry it's kind of hard to see them all good.

Luna Sin Agua!

In our ward they are doing this emergency preparedness activity. Each month they pick a part of the ward to do some survival(ish) thing. This month it was going without water for three days. You have to live off of the water that you have stored. Well, after church we decided that we wanted to do all of them even if our part of the ward wasn't picked. So, we are going to be Luna Sin Agua (Moon's without water-roughly translated). We got everything ready and we have already started. I am so excited. It is like one big adventure!

Nice To Know!

So this is again on Friday night. We were at Home Depot when we ran into a friend of dad's from high school. I guess he had dated mom a couple of times. We sat and talked for a long time. I couldn't believe they could still recognize each other. Well, on the way home mom and dad talked the whole way about there high school days. They talked about prom and about the kids they knew. It was really fun to hear all about it. Usually we don't just hear about that kind of stuff, so I had a really fun time listening to them. I was also surprised that they could remember so many people, let alone their first and last names! I don't think I will be able to. P.S. The picture above isn't exactly what I wanted, but I couldn't find any pictures of them as teenagers. 

WOW!

On Friday Mom, Dad, and I went to a new healthy restaurant called "The Blue Lemon". It is actually really good. Well, anyway, guess who we saw there? We saw David Nibley off of The Best Two Years. He plays the character Elder Johnson. I saw him first and I told mom and dad, but I was thinking there's no possible way he would be there. As the night went on however, we all figured that was him, and nothing is going to convince me otherwise.  That was our amazing story of this week.
