That Has Lindsey Written ALL Over It!!!


Ok so we all know I'm a little special, I just came this way:). Here

is my SPECIAL story.

Last week our bishop encouraged us to do secret service for someone.

Me being the practically perfect person in every way obeyed and set out to

do that special secret service.

I found my lucky person within a few days and boy was he lucky to have

me pick him:). It was my very nice neighbor Todd. Todd is my single

neighbor that works a lot that obviously needed a hand. His flower bed was

infested in weeds, I knew that if he had the time he would have weeded

but from my observation I could tell that his schedule did not allow for such things.

One evening last week Jack and I went to town on his flower beds,

there were a TON of weeds. Finely we finished and I went inside

feeling full of pride for doing my good deed.

Well last night all the scouts and scout leaders were at Todd’s house

passing of some badges. We were outside playing in the park enjoying

the cool evening. I then hear Todd talking about his flower beds, at

the sound of this I get giddy and fill with delightful pride. Then I

hear MORE, this "more" was not good.

Todd says "Ya, some nice person pulled out all my flowers.". At the

sound of this I WANTED TO DIE!!!!!!!! I was about to just turn and go

inside but me being Lindsey K Thatcher Smith I could not walk away without

fessing up. I confess my SPECIALNESS and everyone laughed and laughed

and laughed. At this point Riley comes out, discovers what was

going on and says, "That has Lindsey written all over it, your so cute

Lin."

I came to find out that my nice neighbor had planted his wild

flower seeds in March and thought that they just weren't going to

grow. When they finely bloomed about two weeks ago, Todd was pleased.

Little did Todd know that his practical perfect in every way neighbor

was about to toss them out with the trash.

I must give credit to Todd, he was so nice and even joked about it

saying, "That's what I get for trying to be domestic." He's right there, nobody pants wild flower seeds in their tiny flower bed, right?

I guess I leaned my lesson, no more special secret service projects in the near future for me!

Here are a few pics from the summer, these are for my Kar Kar in lonely for you in Layton;)




This was on our way to Jackson Hole Lake!!! We stopped to let the kids have a break in the park.

We went to the Sea Life Aquarium and Jack loved it. We went with my new friend Jamie!!! We all LOVE Jamie and her 3 girls!!
This is at my new BFFs house. Her daughter had a b-day party and we went. Dane and London LOVED the swimming pool filled with balls. They literally played in there the whole time!
This is a morning ritual
They both love to have their blankets with them while they cuddle. Dane is always to busy playing in the puddles created by the sprinklers:)
