Relief Society Broadcast

Last night I had the priviledge of going to the Relief Society Broadcast at the Stake Center. I went with my good friend's Aimee Cooper and Brandy Oskilanec. We had the best time. The broadcast was, of course, excellent. My favorite speaker was President Uchtdorf. I think he is so awesome! His talk was so uplifting, and motivating. All of the talks were, actually. After the broadcast, the Stake Presidency and some of the Priesthood brothers provided dinner for us. Can I just say, "Yummy?!" It was prime rib, mashed garlic potatoes, two kinds of salad, seasoned green beans, rolls, and apple pie. I was so impressed! There were so many women there that they had to set tables up on the stage, which is were we sat, and in the Primary room. What a great turn out! After wards, I didn't end up getting home until like 11:00 because Aimee, Brandy, and I sat in the car and talked for like 2 hours. It was so much fun, those two girls make me laugh. I love having friends that you can just totally be yourself with. Thanks for the great night girls!

Johnny Appleseed's Birthday

Friday I volunteered to help in Ashlynn's class. They had a birthday party for Johnny Appleseed. It was such a cute idea. The kids were asked to bring in stuff such as apple juice, apple pie, apple sauce, apple slices, etc. I sent some apple filled cookie things, and decorated them with vanilla frosting. See, I knew that cake class would come in handy! :) Anyways, the kids were so cute, and were all dressed in their matching, red class shirts. I love that the teachers think of such fun things for the kids to do. Mrs O'Donnel and Ms. Tratos (student teacher) are doing a great job. I was also happy to find out that Ashlynn is one of the top readers in her class. Great job, Ash!
