What I did this weekend

Since working full time I have really learned to appreciate the weekends..I try to really enjoy my time off, relax and catch up on things. Here are a few things I did ..... Spent time with Whitney who came home for the weekend Made homemade cinnamon twisty bread Lori ( My cousin) came over Friday Night and we made cards

And I took a recent picture of Kimmy and her growing baby bump

Church was good today and it is always nice to come home, have lunch and take a nap.

Happy Birthday Relief Society

Tonight in my ward here in CD'A we had a very nice and fun gathering to celebrate the birthday of the Relief Society, for those of you who read my blog and are not members of my church, the Relief Society is the largest womens organization in the world. It is celebrating 169 years of service to many women, men and families. No matter where you go in the world, you can walk into any LDS church and you will be welcomed by the Relief Society. I have had the opportunity to serve in the Relief Society and it has truely blessed my life. I have the best girlfriends ever that I have met in Relief Society, I have see the program bless so many families and womens lives. So below are some pictures from our little gathering to celebrate the RS's birthday.


These four women have all been Relief Society Presidents.

The Food was delicious

George and Teri's excellent Adventure

George and Teri have hereby been called by the Coeur d'Alene Stake to serve for 18 months in the Plummer branch in the Coeur d' Alene Stake...sounds kind of official doesn't it? Actually we were called by the Stake President to attend the Plummer branch for 18 months and help build up the branch. It is in sorts a mini mission. Plummer is about 35 miles from our home and there are about 70 members down there. We are are very excited and our first Sunday there we were welcomed with warm loving arms. I think it is going to be a great 18 months and I am anxious to serve the people of Plummer Id.

 

Miss Maddy

I totally forgot to add this picture of Madyson to my previous post, she is a sweetheart and so smart, she is a straight A student and wants to go to Harvard some day. Today Madyson ,Kylah and their parents left Idaho and are on their way to North Carolina where they will start a new adventure in their life. I am going to miss them so much and I have to say it has been a very emotional day for me. I won't see them until August when Melanie has her baby. I look forward to that day. Until then we will sype and text and talk on the phone alot. Pictures of the girls will come from their mother! Hoping to still include them in our family blog.

Girls weekend with Whitney

All of us girls (minus Melanie..she was having dental work done) drove down to Moscow Friday after the girls got out of school, We had lots of fun and Whitney was so excited for us to come down and spend time with her. All in attendance were me, Cheryl, Steph, Kim, Maddy and Ky.
