the great nerf gun attack of 2010.

a few days ago jill went to the store and returned home with a nerf ball gun.

we have been having a lot of fun have mini nerf gun wars. all the boys that have been over to visit are very impressed and jealous of the nerf gun. well, today after class jill and i were bored and decided the perfect way to perk up the day was to have a nerf gun war. so we were off to the store. we bought an automatic tommy 20 nerf gun

for myself to use in this fight and then two smaller nerf guns

for the other people we fought to use. we also bought some cheap sale halloween candy to put in little baggies for our home teachers and fhe brothers. we got home and prepared the candy bags and wrote everyone little notes of appreciation and love ;) then we decided who to have the nerf gun war with. so we head over to nauvoo (all our boys live in the nauvoo apts) and we get to the third floor. jill and i hide our nerf guns on the floor to the side of the door and knock. tyler and kyle were very excited to receive their candy bags. then i told them there was an even more exciting present. i pull the two nerf guns out and they were super excited. they were pretty much like little boys getting nerf guns for christmas. then jill and i grabbed our nerf guns and we attacked! they were running around and trying to hide. it was so fun. then we just hung out with them for the next 45 minutes. i really love my home teachers. they are pretty much my brothers away from home and i am so happy when they do fun things with me and spend time with me. it was a pretty wonderful wednesday evening. :) i love nerf gun attacks, what a happy way to brighten your day and have fun.

scripture of the day:

1 Peter 3: 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and His ears are open unto their prayers.

today i am thankful for:

* boys who think it is fun to get attacked in their own home, and not annoying :)

* jill! i have missed her as my roommate. i love having fun with her and being silly.

* having friends in my classes so that i can talk to someone.

* prayer, it has been such a blessing in my life these past few days.
