Feed the Starving Children

Today I went to our Wards service project. I throughly enjoyed the experience. We filled bags of nutritioal food (Chicken, Veggies, Soy, and Rice). There were the fillers, who filled the bags with the food, then there were the baggers who held the bags under the funnel to get filled. Then there was the closer (the person who sealed the bag-my job) and the boxer. Our table filled 15 boxes in total in a little over an hour!!! Way to go team!! I reccommend that anyone who is given the opportunity to serve this non-profit organization to do so! You could feel the spirit in the room, it was wonderful!

Accident Prone

I've come to the conclusion that Allison is accident prone. We had to take Allison to the ER a week ago and she was just at the ER two months before that. She has now had two nursemaid's elbows. Easy fix, takes all of 2 seconds. But what happens is her arm bone pops out of her elbow and the ligament flatens and the bone can't get back into place. So we've got to take her to the doctor (ER in this case because it seems to happen when the doctors are closed). But all is well! She's also got two scabs on each knee from falling on the pavement. What am I going to do with her?

In other news, we are moving down the street at the end of this month! The bedrooms are a little bigger, and Allison gets her very own bedroom!!! Cassi and I are decorating the room. But now's the hard part. Going through several days of crying at night until she is able to sleep alone and soothe herself back to sleep. But we will get through it. I've got the baby blue's and I've been thinking about wanting another child. But that will not happen anytime soon. Maybe someday in the future.

My birthday was last week and I got a receipe book for cupcakes!!! I decorate cakes and cupcakes. I also got Wii Resort and a cupcake tower. My family likes cupcakes over cakes and I hate to tell them but cupcakes are just small versions of cakes. I've already made a snickerdoodle cupcake with 7 minute frosting! yum yum!!

I've got some packing to start and some painting to do. We are going to paint Allison's dresser, a wooden cat and dog, and a wooden sign that says princess and letters to spell out Allison. I've still got a little bit of shpping to do. A toy chest for Allison and curtains for her room as well. I figure she doesn't need that much stuff, she's got tons upon tons of toys!! I've got some pictures of a cake I made that I will put up in my next blog. I've also got a cake to make for the August birthdays at Jasons work. So until next time, bloggers!
