Red Cross Blood Drive

Chris and I participated @ a Red Cross Blood Drive this past friday night at church! It was my first time giving blood...the giving blood part was okay but some of the questions were so silly...Such as...I handed the lady my drivers license and this was the conversation that follwed:

"Whats your name"

"Rachel Shearer"

"Can you spell your name for me please"

Really? Really? So that just seamed a little silly...other than that the only painful experiance was the finger "poke" it was so not a poke! It was a stab with a giant knife!!!!!!!!! Okay well it was a poke but it felt like the giant knife wound more! Chris had a little bit of a bruise from his bc when he was almost done the blood stoped coming out and they had to wiggle his needle around! YUCKY! In all our Stake donated 66 units of blood! Woo Hoo!

Our Kitten!

Here are some pictures of our new kitten...we do not know what it is yet but it's name will either be pop if it is a boy or poppy if it is a girl! It is one month old and very cuddley!

Curlers for Curly

Okay so I stayed late and watched the girls the night before Sarah's last day of school so I put her hair up in rollers...well Mokey see Monkey do because as soon as a finished sarah's hair Sabrina sat down in front of me and said "My turn!" I tried explaining that her hair was already super curly and did not need curlers...but she could have cared less and we proceeded. UNFORTUNATLY I did not see/get pictures of the end result but wanda said it was quite a sight! But here is something that I am sure no one thought they would see...sabrina with curlers in her hair! And of course sarah too =D

Bryce's Trip to the Temple!

Our nephew Bryce is going on his mission in a week or so and we recently got to go with him to the Newport Beach temple where he recieved his endowments. It was super exciting to be able to go with him and it was our first time @ the Newport Beach Temple! Here are some pictures from the event...
