We had an excellent Stake Activity Day Girls Conference tonight! The weather was a bit snowier that we'd hoped for, but the girls had a great time and learned too! The theme was PJ'S - Prayer, Journals, and Scriptures. It was alot to prepare - and not with out some stress, but it was well worth it. We had two talks on the theme and a musical number by of of the wards girls. ( the new song for 2010) Pizza, candy, prayer, music, journal writing and reading scriptures all in one evening... What could be better! I really do love the ladies I work with in my calling too!

Calling ALL Crafters!

So, with my new calling we are preparing for the annual Activity Day girl Conference - in Nov. that they have. I feel kind of out of the loop with the older girl thing since I have done cubs for so long. We are thinking of a possible SIMPLE craft for the girls. We cant do paint or anything messy because they will be in their church clothes. I was thinking of maybe a bookmark that you get from Deseret and then adding some beads on a string or a small notebook / gratitude journal with simple scrapbooky thing on the front and beads on the bookmark. Maybe even a frame with a picture of them or Christ or a mirror. It cant be too costly. The Theme is "To this End I was Born" - referring to the girls and to Christ's life. There are about 150 girls - 8 yrs to 11 that we will split in 2 sections - one having lunch, one doing the craft for about 30 minutes.

So -- I need your help/ideas. Please comment or email or call!! I know you all and how TALENTED you are in these areas -

Let me know!!
