D.O.T.S




 
 
I am serving in the YW presidency right now.
It was our New Beginnings night last week.
Our theme was Depending On The Savior (totally stolen from pinterest)
 Hence all the polka dots!
 
 
 
 
We created an image of the Savior with connect the dot numbers outlined around
His face. As the night progressed and after different speakers spoke or girls were introduced we would but a black dot next to the number.
Once all the dots were connected we explained that as we all depend on each other as well as the Savior
our lives are connected in this wonderful gospel in which we have!
 
 


 
I don't have a picture of the food but we served a light dinner of:
Chicken salad on croissants.
Strawberries, blackberries, and grapes
Chips and dip and pink lemonade!
For dessert, chocolate eclairs!
You have to make the elcairs the night before so it was hard for Casey to not
 dig into one of the 6 pans sitting in our fridge!

 
We went crazy with the decorations!

 
I made these polka dot paper flowers for the center pieces.
I couldn't figure out a way to keep the flower from tipping over to the side
once in the jar.
I tried stabbing it into jumbo marshmallow's, gluing it to  a huge rock,
poking it through a snack pack... you name it!!!
Finally Rusty and I went to a park and stole some sand!:/
 
 

 
The gift for the new girls coming into YW.
It was a framed picture of the Savior with the connect the dots.
 

I thought this was the cutest.
To introduce the new Beehives they would "spot" the girl in the
audience with binoculars and bring her to the front.
 As they were being introduced they would get a dot put on them with what
their favorites were, what they look to do...
 
The lovely ladies I serve with!
Counselors and advisers.


 
The presidency.
