cool huh

so today I go to the Nursery during church... because that is my new calling just in case you all were wondering...
and i'm talking to the other ladies in Nursery and this is what they say to me...
"So, how did you guys get the 1st presidency to pray for your sister?"
umm.... what??!!
i couldn't answer their question because I have NO IDEA!
seriously, apparently it's true.
and that's really cool!

but, what is very UNcool is that instead of my family being like
"hey Rachel, since you are part of the family and this really awesome thing happened to us we would like you to hear about it..."
i find out from people in the ward, after everyone else knows.

awesome.

anywho.. i'll try to stop being bitter and be happy for my sister.
okay, bitterness over.

but finally i uploaded some pictures so here are the pictures from the fun date i went on last week!!

this is how it went

 we met at the church on McDowell and tandem biked to the abandoned bridge and finger painted the sunset

i know, amazing

this is the group

we had awesome camo bandana's

that was fun

this is me :)

it is definitely an in action shot.

don't get me wrong, preston is an awesome driver... but it's just scary not being in control.. ya know?? 

ha, i only screamed a little.

after we were done tandem biking we went to spencer frame's house and had a candlelit dinner with our favorite cereals! how creative are these guys??!

we have great posture

funny story behind this one...

i saw some ice cream melting in a bowl in the kitchen of a church.

there was some kind of a reception going on i believe

and so if you know me... i can't just pass by ice cream with toppings and all go to waste!!

so... i sneaked on in the kitchen and technically stole... but really saved the ice cream!

it was great

in action...

also, Preston and I believe modest is hottest so we put our bandannas to work to cover up this lovely mannequin!!

well, this is a week late but it was still SO fun.

loved it.
