Family Day In Michigan

Big fan of yellow watermelon. Reminds me of Hawaii.

Eve loves the sand! She had a blast crawling all over the beach. I love her little beard of sand in this picture. This cute little shirt my friend Ashley made. She sells a whole bunch of cute stuff like this on her Itsy shop. Check her out at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5726747

Mark about to dive Eve in the water. She just loved the water.

She was splashing like crazy!

We were to the left of this. Whatever this is, I liked it.

Pebbles on the sand.

After the beach Mark drove us to the ghetto. An area he had worked in. He had mention this amazing mural he had seen while he was working and insisted that I should take a picture of it. It depicts the process of African slavery . It was painted on an abandon house. I would have gotten better pictures of it, but I was scared that I would be involved in a drive by shooting. All in all we had a fun family day in Michigan.

Lexie's shower was really fun and she is such a beautiful pregnant lady! She has a blog too, but she doesn't update it ever! I keep giving her a hard time about it.

Juanita's Conversion Story

I feel that Heavenly Father has blessed me with the desire to play softball. The fact that the Lord was guiding me to play softball became more evident to me when I was offered a scholarship to play ball at BYU-Hawaii. The thought of attending BYU-Hawaii just seemed right and good at the time so I attended college there. My first year in college I was so excited to learn, play, and party. I discovered real soon that the students who attended the university had fun without drinking. I also discovered that the people were faithful and they had a strong sense of purpose and Identity. This compelled me to go on a spiritual search. I decided to take the lessons from the missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As I took the lessons I was taught things that I heard before and things that were new to me. Such as the Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith. These were things that were a challenge for me to believe. So I took these challenges up to the Lord and I asked him if the Book of Mormon is the word of God and if Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I'm so delighted to share with you that I do know that the Book of Mormon is true and that the Prophet Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that it's true because of the power of the Holy Spirit, because of these truths and much more I decided to be baptized and serve the Lord. Getting baptized was the best decision I ever made. It's because of this choice that I enjoy the blessing of life today. The church is true and I find myself indebt to the Lord forever.
