Sorry that I have not been keeping up with everyone's blogs lately. I've been out of town with our family for spring break and took about 600 pictures last week and decided to just create some slideshows on Smilebox to get caught up. I've been reading blogs here and there, plus balancing other good activities. Also, I've found that I spend a lot of time on Facebook these days as I've got a ton more friends there than on my blog. I prefer my blog so much more, but can stay in touch with more people, more easily through FB. These are all my excuses why this blog has kind of taken a slight backseat. Enjoy the Smilebox slideshows below when you get a chance and come back soon for more. They've also been posted on FB for the past few days.
Hopefully this title, Book of Mormon Stories Pool Party , does not sound irreverent, because as an Activity Days leader, I felt compelled to come up with a fun end-of-the-summer event that is also uplifting, and after all, who doesn't love a splash in the pool on a hot day in August? My current church calling, or official role that I volunteer for, allows me to plan two activities each month for girls ages 8 to 11, that will encourage them to learn and live the gospel, serve others, and use the talents Heavenly Father has given them, to learn to do many good things. This year's seminary course of study for high school students is The Book of Mormon, and since I am a huge fan of this inspired book of scripture, I came up with this idea to have each girl show up to my house with a written summary of one of her favorite stories from within its many pages, and share it with the rest of the girls, while outside in our swimsuits near our backyard swimming pool! As each girl shares
