Relief Society Shootout: VT Style


Not sure how Big Ash and I come up with these crazy ideas. We were getting sick of all the excuses that people have for not doing visiting teaching. So we decided to decorate soda pop cans with all our excuses and then take them to the desert and blow them up. Our motto, From Saturday on the Excuses are gone!


G.irls U.nderstanding the N.eeds of S.isters
Nice crowd
4 in a row


I know you all wish you could have a RS presidency like this....

You can tell them over and over again to do their visiting teaching with no results. Put a gun in your hand and tell them the same thing and what happens....... sisters get taught!

Phoenix Temple

I never thought we would have another temple in Arizona, who knew the phoenix temple would be so so close to us. It was kind of a cool experience getting to go to the town meetings and finally the meeting with the govenor. Every meeting while long was sprinkled with a few crazy moments....like when they said we did canning in the temple or that having the temple built would cause 4 animals to go extinct! I really cant wait for it to be built!
1st Meeting @ Deer Valley Community Center. People had to wait outside but we were some of the lucky ones who got to stand on the wall for 2 and half hours. And when I say stand, I really mean squeezed next to the person next you.

2nd Meeting @ Central High School. We got to sit down and I tried to work on a talk I had coming up. Sitting next to the Dawson boys is always a fun night.

3rd Meeting @ The Orphiem. We didnt get free parking but it was worth it. Of course Julia didnt want to take a picture, but I made them.

H & M

Now that I work, I think the thing I miss the most is making excuses to go to lunch with everyone. This day the excuse was H&M opening. Somehow going all the way to Scottsdale means that we are so close to Cafe Rio and Bahama Bucks that we have to go there for lunch.

While traveling to H&M still finishing off our treats someone said something that made me and Katie do a cheers with our bahama bucks cups, except Katie thought that we should do high fives...long story short Katie slapped my cup striaght up into the air all over Julia's just cleaned SUV!
We finally arrived at the store and only had to stand in line for like 30 minutes, which wasnt bad. Inside it was a mad house, but we survived.
