Catch up Time

I know I haven't posted for a while- it seems like most days I don't have anything all that interesting to post about and then, boom, I'll have a few days of post-worthy events all in a row. Of course, these things may in actuality only be post-worthy in my eyes but hopefully my few faithful followers may find them interesting as well. So here are a bunch of pictures from the weeks activities... First- on Tuesday I drove up to Logan to go to Heather's forever friend Katrina's senior voice recital. I got there early enough that we could play a bit and have dinner before the concert so of course we headed to Sugar and Spice, a fun little home decor store. I was looking to redo my kitchen window shelf. Here is the outcome of that venture- I found the rooster at Sugar and Spice and the topiary plant at Tai Pan ( already had the plate).

The cute striped balls in the tall apothecary jar came from Sugar and spice, the jars, apples and seed balls came from Michaels (already had the chicken).

Cute, Huh? I love how it turned out. Everytime I walk over to the kitchen I take a moment to look at it.

Wednesday for our Young Women's activity I talked to the girls about dressing modestly and then we gave them tissue paper, tape, ribbons and napkins and had them design a modest prom/dance dress. I just had to post these pics-

The Laurels (16-18 yr. olds) came up with this beauty, modeled by Molly.

The Mai Maids (14-16 yr. olds) came up with this superhero type outfit modeled by Emma.

And our little Beehives(12-14 yr. olds) designed this darling striped creation modeled by Abby. They had a little help from their leaders. Here they are all together...

They then paraded down the halls of the Church to show the Young Men, who clapped and cheered for them!
Today I headed down to Orem to have lunch with three of my sisters, which is unfortunately something we don't do very often. Kristin was in town for a couple of days and Dona is about ready to have her baby so we had a little lunch/ shower at Mimi's Cafe.

Kristin, Amy and Holly-

and Dona and me. We had a great time talking and catching up and Dona loved having new clothes for her baby. She got some cute dresses, outfits, onsies, diapers, wipes etc.. I found this cute dress-

I loved this dress that Holly found for her. It's a onsie with pink tulle that says DIVA.

Dona is due in three weeks. Can't wait to see the new little one! Thanks girls for a fun lunch!Well, there you go... all caught up with the happenings of my week.
