weekend update

I spent last Saturday afternoon here...

picking dandelions. Our ward was having a service project helping out the park services pick weeds. The weeds turned out to be yellow dandelions covering a HUGE grass area at Chrissy Fields. Turns out they are an invasive species. Who knew? The weather was AMAZING, and the view of the Golden Gate Bridge couldn't have been better. It felt so great being able to help out the Park Services and know how grateful they were for the little service that we rendered. It surprised me how many people, who were riding bikes or running along the trail next us, yelled out to thank us for what we were doing. What also surprised me was how sore my butt was the next day. If you ever feel the need to work out that part of your body, just sit and pick weeds for a couple hours. Cause that will do it for ya!


On Friday night, two of my favorite people were in town. After a delicious Italian meal at Tomatino's, we broke out the games, and had quite an enjoyable evening. I love these girls!
