Why Become a Lion


Why I joined the Lions Club

I am newer member of the Lion's Club, but my husband has been a Lion for 30 years. This last 10 years, I have so enjoyed being a part of the community, I have learned how to give vision and hearing tests, packed baskets of food and gifts for the needy at Thanksgiving and Christmas, worked at the special Olympics to get glasses for all the participants that needed them. I have loved every minute of it!

Now, I am getting ready to start a Leo Lion's Club at the local high school, Rocky Mountain High, and I am really looking forward to getting this next generation involved in giving back to the community. I think it is a great way to "train up our children". If you live locally and would like to be a part of a wonderful service organization, please let me know. We are a small club and definitely looking for new members.

April 24th, 2009 I just had to take a photo of the weeping cherry bush since it blooms for such a short period of time. I am so happy that we moved here to Idaho. It has been such a great move for our children. The people are friendly and warm, the crime is low, the schools score very well. So many wonderful things about living in Idaho :-) The weekend is here and I am excited! I Have one Arbonne party on Saturday and will be gathering some orders in the morning. I am really excited because Victor was able to get us Taylor Swift concert tickets at the very last moment when the radio station opened up a few seats. He got on line and we couldn't get even get 4 tickets, but scraped by and got us 2 tickets :-) Woohooo ;-) The kids are all doing well. Morgan had her 11th birthday yesterday and is having a little party tomorrow, there will even be a couple of BOYS!!! ;-) too cute, she is the first girl to even ask to invite a boy to her party.

Grandpa Charles' visit

This week we are having a busy and very "summery" week, filled with activities with the family. My dad's dad, my grandpa Charles is visiting from Durango, Colorado. Also, my best friend's daughter, Shannon, is visiting from Missouri. This is the week that we are going to the lake lots, going to the water park and we will get away to McCall this weekend, a very dear friend is letting us use their house their. We are excited about the getaway :-) It truly feels like summer now! Of course, there is no internet in McCall and very little cell phone service and so I am telling the kids to take books and games etc. It will be nice to focus on the family this weekend.
