Activity was a Success!

If you hadn't noticed there has been quite a few days in between my blog posts lately.
That would be because I was a little busy helping to put on an activity for all the Activity Day Girls in our stake.

It's over!
It was a complete success!
And it was so much FUN!

We had over 100 girls at the activity!

The activity centered around service.
We asked each ward to sew 3 pillowcases to donate to a local hospital.
The hospital puts them on beds of children who are having major surgeries or who have cancer and they also fit on the NICU mattresses for the little babies.

We thought we would get around 50 pillowcases.
We actually got 140 pillowcases!

The girls rotated through classes based on different aspects of service and then gathered back for lunch and a video presentation of them making all the pillowcases!


These girls are amazing!
I had so much fun!
Can't wait to do it all again next year!
