Planting the garden

We planted our garden on May 16th.  This year, Madelyn was a much more active member of the family as we planted.  She handed the plants to Todd to put in the ground as well as tripped over the perfectly made rows several times.
  

 After looking at her face, you could tell she had the most fun.

We are excited to see what grows this year!

Locks of Love

One summer many years ago while visiting Utah, I attended a YW activity with my cousin, Amy Todd.  We listened to a guest speaker who was a Locks of Love spokesperson.  She had cancer and was wearing one of the wigs provided by Locks of Love.  I remember how much she appreciated having a wig to wear that she could do anything with.  It made her rough time that much better.

  

 So donating hair to Locks of Love has been something I have always wanted to do.  I decided to finally do it! Ten inches was required to donate to actually use for a wig, but any length of hair will be accepted.  When I went to get it cut, the lady was great to help.  I was excited to ship my hair off and hopefully the hair goes towards making someone's rough time a little better.
