Birthdays and Baptismand Evening of Excellence

Last week was extremely hectic. I worked a 24hr shift Monday and then spent Tues and Wed getting ready for the YW Evening og Excellence. It turned out phenomenal. We did a fairy tale theme based on Pres Uchtdorf's talk "Your Happily Ever After". You can watch the clip I played at the beginning of the program (thanks to my brother-in-law Tim) here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vr_cZPnbdO4
We have a guy in our ward who sang in the tabernacle choir and he sang daughter of a king - it was awesome. A coulple of speakers who did great, then all th YW sang I Know my Redeemer Lives, then our guest speaker who was Miss Teen Utah - she was terrific. Then all the girls walked through the arch and were handed a rose and a your happily ever after book by one of the priests and walked down the aisle and then for the closing song all the yw leaders sang Walk Tall. It was great but lots of work.

Kiersten's bday was this week. I can't believe she is six! That means we have been back in Utah for seven years - time flies.












She wanted a turkey cake.





What a sweetheart!







This is after Lynnaea's baptism - we sang happy b-day to her. It is a graveyard cake made by Aunt Andrea. I had the YW Evening of Excellence wed then sat morning, of Lynnaea's baptism, myself and two other leaders went and kidnapped a new beehive and took her out for breakfast and then all the yw met to clean the church. so, i was a little stressed about the baptism and food since I was gone all morning and the baptism was at 3pm.







New scriptures!
