I found some more pictures of the girls and it makes me miss that warm weather! But, seriously I have such pretty little girls! Can't stand their cuteness!
I got called into Young Women's recently and I really love it! I had a great time at Girls camp this summer and I'm excited to hang out with these cool girls again. One of our activities was ice blocking! Pretty much all those pictures were blurry because they were all in constant motion. Good times!
This one needs some explaining, huh? My partner in Young Women's has a ton of dresses from various family members and had the girls try them on to wear for another activity. There were some interesting old school dresses, but it was awesome!
That brings me to my activity for Young Women in Excellence night. We spent so much time and energy planning this and it turned out so great!
First, we had a "Red Carpet" (actually it was bright pink) with the "Star of Fame" walkway. We also had a little paparazzi crowd (activity days girls cheered as the Young Women came in)!
We had an interviewer and cameraman, of course!
We decorated the cultural hall all snazzy! It actually took about 5 hours to blow up all the balloons and set up the place, plus days and days of making centerpieces, gift bags, and stars. (It did look a lot better with the dim lights and lit centerpieces, etc.)
One of my favorite things was the photo booth! Obviously we had some fun props and even a polaroid camera there!
I wish I had taken some more pictures, but was busy helping run the show. We had a great MC host and did an amazing "Emma Award Show" (like the Emmys, but Emma for Emma Smith... I thought it was obvious, but had to explain that several times). We had performances and "celebrity" guests and speakers. I don't think it could have gone any better! We have such wonderful, talented young women. I just love them!
