Oh, the Places You'll Go!

Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.

We just recently had our YW Night of Excellence. Our theme was this Dr. Seuss book. It is such a great poem. This post is for my mom, who wanted to see "pictures". In the picture above- there are 31 of our 38 girls. We have awesome young women. I love serving with them.
Our theme was, Oh, the places you'll go- and our take home message is
"Every road you take should lead you to the temple."
A friend made these beautiful temple cookies, which we gave as a handout along with a picture of our local temple and our "take home message".
It was a great night and we were all glad to have our first big meeting under our belt.Step with care and great tact
and remember that Life's
a Great Balancing Act.
Just never forget to be dextrous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

And will you succeed?
Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)

Girls, You'll move mountains!

Heather, these are great photos and you are - as ever - a wonderfully gifted and spiritual leader of our youth, let alone wife and mother. I doff my chapeau. Well done!

Those cookies are amazing!! I hear you almost made a trip south this weekend. Wish you would have! Hopefully we will get to see you at Christmas time.

Fun idea! We just had ours on Sunday and themed it, "Our Excellent Young Women." We had the girls spotlight each other and they did an AMAZING job. I'm glad yours went well...and 38 YW is a lot! I sometimes feel big and we have 17. Wish you were still here and we could be serving together again!
