"Pay it Forward"

What a great idea!!! My friend had posted this idea on her blog and I just loved the idea! How fun would it be to pass on some joy! I appreciate all my blogging family here that has been such an inspiration and joy in my life! I can't thank you all enough for the support, advice and encouragement I feel from your comments and friendships! I have been blogging for over a year now and have been blessed so much! I am grateful for this outlet.

Thanks for listening to my rants and raves, my triumphs and tragedies! I know I can ramble. Hopefully it's been a form of entertainment and a reality check at times! It's nice to know that someone out there is a little crazier then yourself!! Glad I could be that special crazy gal in all your lives!!!!

So here's my plan...To pay it forward I would like to send a little something special to a few friends! The only way I can think to do it is just draw a few names! So if you'd like to be considered for my fun surprise "Pay it forward " mail give a way please leave a comment! In doing so you agree to do your own " Pay it forward" post and continue the chain of gratitude!!!

I'll Draw my names on Tuesday evening so anyone reading this after Tuesday evening SORRY, ( but know I still love ya!!!)

Ok gals!!!Pay it forward!!!


Totally different topic...


So today Mike and I taught our Sunday School Gospel Doctrine Class! It went so well!!!!Tons of group participation's and we had such a great time! It was a huge class!!! The average age was probably 50 so talk about intimidating! They so knew way more then we did! But They were all so welcoming and I really loved teaching! I have never taught in Church before!

And that's the perfect segway into my next announcement!!I got a calling! I was called to teach in Sunday School! I have the 14-15 year old youth class! How freakin cool is that! I can't tell you how excited I am! I always wondered why I never had a teaching calling! Would I totally suck! I really feel confident that this is the perfect calling for me! I have always wanted to work with the youth! That too I have never done! So there you have it! My new calling! I am so Stoked!

Peace out!!!

That calling sounds like fun. I'll join in your pay it forward challenge. I've seen a few others doing it, looks like fun to me.

Hey, I haven't seen you guys in awhile! Josh and I are going to have to come up there sometime soon. Also, if you ever want us to babysit, we TOTALLY WILL!! Then you and Mike can go out on a special date. So, I finally updated our blog, haha. And congrats on the new calling, you are going to be sooo amazing!

Congrats on the calling. Aaron and I taught the same age group. It's a tough age group but a lot of fun. I just saw Mace's bikini baby on your other blog and it made me laugh so hard! I'm sure there is never a dull moment in your house!

You will be a GREAT SS teacher, Rebecca! CONGRATS!!! I just got a new calling too - it absolutely terrifies me and I feel totally inadequate, but I'm excited at the same time. I've never taught this age group, but I know you'll be great - I can see you doing it. :)
