We had a party at the JARDINE'S! I know weird huh? They are the best! They love to host parties and since Mike was here from Seattle we had a party and guess what we did? SERVICE! Tonia had us broke into teams and family members were separated and we had to take $10 in $1 bills. And then they gave us another $5. We had to go and try to do service for as many strangers as we could in 45 minutes, and the team who did the most with the $15 WON! So I was with all the men- Mike, Brandt, Brennen, Hayden, and Caleb... we went to Smith's and unloaded groceries to people's cars and gathered their carts, they even put someones Christmas tree on top of their car. We bought someone hot chocolate. Then we went to Maverik and pumped gas and then gave 7 strangers a candy bar and then donated the rest of our money to the food bank. Our team served 36 people. Brad's team served 34 people, they went to Wal-mart and gave random people stamps and told them to write a letter to someone they were missing. Grace's team served 8 people, they went into Ogden to see what the rescue mission needed and they went and got hats and gloves to the actual homeless people, not the people in our neighborhood, haha. Stockton's team went to Del-taco and bought as many taco's as they could and gave them away, 27 taco's, I think? Sara was on the winning team, they went to Smith's and bought cookie dough and cooked them and took them around to the neighbors, they served 91 people! The kids loved it, they learned that helping others was fun and we made it a game. I only had the pictures from my group :(
Yes that is a PINK dog!
