YW In Excellence

For one of my value projects I put on this year's YW in Excellence.  I has so much fun planning and preparing for it!! 
Our theme was "Our YW Values Help Prepare us for the Temple" About a month ago, we had a mutual activity where the girls chose women in our ward who represented the different values.  Last week we took them a goodie plate and told them why we chose them.  We have some pretty amazing women in our ward. 
For the program, we asked a few of them to speak on the different values. 
For dessert we had Cheesecake with different toppings which were all the Young Women Value Colors:

Faith {white} = Whipped Cream
Divine Nature {blue} = Blueberries
Individual Worth {red} = Cherries
Knowledge {green} = Green Sprinkles (I had to get a bit creative!)
Choice and Accountability {orange} = Mandarin Oranges
Good Works {yellow} = Lemon Pudding
Integrity {purple} = Blackberries
Virtue  {gold} = Apples

Plus we had Wedding Slush...mmmm!  Its always a hit!
For the handout I made these temple blocks...I found the idea on this blog.  They turned out pretty cute and were perfect for our theme!
Now just a few shots of our adorable Young Women! :)


I have the best calling! :)

Murder Mystery

This year we were invited to a Murder Mystery Party.  It was sooooo much fun!!  A couple from our ward invited us over and it was a great way to get to know everyone!

The Torturous Dentist and the Mummy

The Prince of Dimness and The Wicked Witch of Depressed
 The Clairvoyant, and the Monster
 And then Howard was the Cannibal who turned out to be the murderer and I was the fiance of the guy who got murdered

Thanks Sarah and Jeremy it was a blast!
