Yesterday I was able to go to the Provo Temple with my ward before they close for the Summer (For those of you who are wondering what the Temple is look here). My grandparents found out I was going and emailed me some family names that they found that needed to be done soon. I felt the spirit so strongly in the Temple, I love having that connection with my ancestors. I am grateful for this gospel and the blessings it brings me as well as the proximity of the temple to my house.

The weather today was just amazing! I love the warm wind and light rain of the Summer (The smell of fresh rain has to be my favorite!). While spending time outside in the rain (We played cops and robbers for FHE) I climbed a fence for the win, it was quite exciting!  I don't know that I have ever climbed a fence before, it was a new experience... Happy Monday!

This song keeps getting stuck in my head, but that's okay because it makes me happy! 

Today I was able to go to my parents ward and I ditched Sunday School for Primary (They have singing time, what's not to love?). The lesson today was about Baptism. To start off the lesson the teacher asked the kids what they knew about baptism. My favorite answer was "It washes all the bugs away". Later she had an object lesson. She asked the kids what they did that they know they should not do and for each thing she put more dirt onto her hand (to later immerse in the water and wash it away) here is some of that conversation...
Her: What do we sometimes do that our parents ask us not to do?
Kid 1: Slapping people in the face.
Kid 2: When I want to slap someone I just grab a pillow.
Kid 3: My parents told me not to pinch anyone.
Kid 4: Unless you are not wearing green!

I am so thankful for children and the humor that they bring to my life! I am also grateful for my earthly father and my Heavenly Father! Happy Father's Day!

Currently, this is my favorite song!

Some people just amaze me! I am so grateful for the opportunities in my life that I am able to perform and receive service. I know that by performing little acts of service we will become better friends and be more comfortable around others. I remember reading a study about the effects of service on friendship and it found that when you perform acts of service for others you are more invested in the friendship than when others perform a service for you. This makes sense to me but it is still impressive that there is such a connection between how you treat others and how you feel about them. Happy Sunday!!!
