what are the odds?

What are the odds of a wasp flying into the open window of a moving car and stinging an innocent person on the eyelid? I would like to know because that is just what happened to our poor Kiki last Monday night. Here is the proof. If I didn't see it for myself I would not have believed it.

Oh no! That's so sad. . .

I am not a fan of wasps whatsoever! We had our very first run in with them two weeks ago. I had the kids playing at the park. We were all sitting on the stairs and Isaac said,"mom there are bugs crawling under there". (under where we were sitting). I went to look and just then wasps are flying all over Ainsley. I yell at Isaac to run, grab Ainsley and run, flicking them off of her. She got stung a few times on her head, neck, and nose :( Isaac made it out with only one on his arm.

Okay enough about my family :) THIS IS YOUR BLOG! I hope she feels better soon!!!

Brooke: I can't believe Ainsley got stung that many times! Poor girl!!! I got stung by a wasp one year at Girl's camp right in the middle of the testimony meeting that they have on Friday night. My hubby was sitting next to me when I screamed and he and his counselor made me fun of me for the rest of the night for being such a big baby!!!!I can't imagine how painful that was for your sweet little girl.

poor girl. i hope her eye feels better.

that happened to my brother while he was driving a few years ago which led to him rear ending my parent's car (with their other car that he was driving). it's now a family joke he may never live down. :)

Oh no, that's awful! She'll probably be afraid to ride with the windows down from now on. I can't believe how bad her eye swelled up. Poor thing! I hope she gets better soon!

oh my gosh that is awful!!!! I once had a swarm of bees attack me when I was like 8 and about 8 or 10 got stuck in my hair and stung my head...they had to chop off all my hair in order to get them out.....but I think I would still rather have had that then get stung on the eyelid...it's just such a sensitive area!!!!

Builders vs. Wreckers

Image
A little poem I heard from John Bytheway on a BYU fireside (on BYUTV) today. Makes me stop and go "hmmmmm....." I might have another resolution to add to my growing list..... Builders vs. Wreckers I passed one day through a lonely town And saw men tearing a building down. With a ho-heave-ho and a husky yell They swung at a beam and a side wall fell. I asked the foreman, “Are these men skilled- The kind you’d hire if you had to build?” “Oh no!” he chuckled, “No indeed- The common laborer is all I need.” “Why I can destroy in a day or two What builders have taken weeks to do.” I thought to myself as I went on my way “Which of these rolls have I tried to play? Am I the builder who works with care Strengthening lives by rule and square, Shaping my peers to a well made plan- Helping them do the best they can- Or am I a wrecker who walks around Content with the labor of tearing down?” -Author Unknown

Surprise McKinley!

Image
A week ago, McKinley's best friend, Caty, texted me and asked if she could throw McKinley a surprise birthday party on her birthday.  The girls had been challenged by their Young Women leaders to do a 10 hour project for Individual Worth and she thought it would make a great project to plan a fun party for her! She invited 14 fun friends to join in on the surprise. I wish I would have taken the time to take a picture of the cute chocolate fountain and home made cupcakes she made.  She had blown up about 20 balloons and when McKinley walked in to the house they jumped out and showered her with shredded paper. Then they went swimming.  Yes, in November and NO, they had not heated the pool. kiki and  Lexie   with Emily  and Molly  and Mallory  and Kylie H.  and Kaly   the Lloyd twins and Abbey  Megan  Kaylie W.  Michaela  and Kylie P who had celebrated her birthday with a party the night before.
