We are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and an important part of being a member of the church is we SERVE! We help give relief to anyone who needs it. Mr. Incredible and Dash had football practice to attend and I and Sweetheart were to head to SC to volunteer at an animal shelter and take cute adorable photos of the dogs in the shelter to get them adopted but it got postponed. So, the two of us headed over to the school where the rest of the members from our ward were helping.
Service doesn't require age! I love that this mama brought her babes to work and to serve. When we were young parents and had 4 little goslings underfoot they went with us on all service projects and to clean the chapel. Did it take longer? Probably. Was it enjoyable for the children? Probably not, but our children went with us and worked by our sides and they learned that we do things for others and because it is the right thing to do. Make decisions that aren't easy but that require sacrifice so they will learn. Going to church faithfully when your children keep you in the hallway all through sacrament is WORTH IT!! They are learning that church is where they need to be. It is THAT important!
Taking a small breather! The yard work was intense.
My girl looks so happy!
this truck is a truck of service! It has helped many people across the nation and continues to serve others! I'm so grateful that we have it and that it not only blesses our lives but the lives of others! They guy in it is pretty amazing too!
