My Primary Class : The Valiant 8 Class

Here I am with my darling primary class. They are the 8 year olds turning 9. They are the cutest group of girls. They love to help me set up and clean up and participate in class. Each week we sing " I am a Child of God" in our class because that is the theme in primary this year. We also do a group cheer and group hug before we leave class. They all want to sit by me in sharing time so we rotate around each week. It has been so fun getting to know them and teach them new things. They are so sweet and loving and really happy to see me each week. They love the notebooks I made them and are excited to do the assignments I give them each week. We did spotlights in February on each girl and that was very fun. I have 2 sisters who are investigating the church with their mom and come to my class. They seem really engaged and eager to learn. It is exciting to watch.

Primary is a blast and I love being in there....who knew it could be so fun. I have spent most of my adult life in YW and RS.....a few times in primary. I loved it last time I was there and I love it again. I think my favorite part is the music. I just LOVE the primary songs and the spirit they bring into our lives. I hope I can teach them well and make a difference in their lives.

PRIMARY ROCKS!

PS. Greg and I teach the stake mariage class and we are having fun there too. It is a blessing to be able to serve in the church.

Valentine's Table 2013

Another month with a new table using alot of the same things. I didn't get out my Valentine's Day stuff again this year...knee and back are not 100% yet. So used some of the same stuff...added some hearts from the dollar store. I may the letters for the bunting and used some hearts I had.  Nothing that exciting but festive enough for us.

Ranger and the kids

Denton got the kids a beautiful dog for Christmas. 

The named him Ranger.  They were so thrilled.

 Here are a few pictures of them. 

Marianne's Shower at my house

We had a shower for a  great girl in our ward named Marianne. She is having a baby girl in April. It was a brunch and there was lots of yummy food people helped make. She got lots of cute things and lots of good baby girl advice.  I did the table in black, white and pink and the bunting in black and white cardstock. I think everybody had a good time.

Lindsay did the Half Marathon! Dec. 1, 2012

What a great 1st of December present. 

Lindsay did the half marathon today. 

She hasn't been training for that long but has done really great. 

Who would have thought both of my girl's would become runners?

When their mom's goal is just to be able to walk downstairs and to the car:) 

So proud of Lindsay today!
