Knowledge is POWER

Wow!  It has been a long time!  I was going to be posting right when the kiddies went back to school and here we are in October.  The END of October I should say.  I have been painting, planning, decorating, and creating tons of printables and then I NEVER post anything.  Completely out of the habit.  I hope that I can get back in the groove.

YW has been extra busy.  We planned a ten hour Knowledge project for our entire group and I am finishing it up with a Knowledge lesson.  We spent about eight weeks training for a 5K run, learned about fueling our bodies, food labels, healthy recipes, & what is in the Word of Wisdom.  It has been a blast.  I am finishing up with a lesson on Knowledge tomorrow and by the end of the year the ENTIRE Knowledge section should be passed off.

I created a bookmark that has every scripture in for Knowledge Value Experience #1.  I am going to have the girls write a journal page tomorrow in class and have five of our girls give a short talk that will cover  Additional Knowledge Value Experience #4.  We are finishing every thing up.  It has been a blast and if you need any additional details please let me know!  Thanks for your continuous support through my dry spell and fingers crossed I won't go this long again!

Here is the poster I created for the Ten hour project kick off!

Summer Vacation

Dear Friends,

Just wanted to let you know that I am on Summer Break. Don't give up on me. I will resume all good things when Summer slows down! Thanks for your patience! I miss you!

Quilt Donation

This is my son, who received one of our quilts.  He nearly lost his life  due to a near drowning accident.  

Just a quick hello!  Just wanted to share that one of our charity quilts went to a grieving family.  They recently lost their son.  It breaks my heart.  We almost lost our son to a drowning accident in the river and I am so thankful he is still with us.  Our lives have changed forever because of the damage that was done to his lungs.  However, I would NEVER trade having one more day with him, he is with us!

Young Women -- Lesson 17: The Purpose of Covenants and Ordinances

I am in charge of the YW lesson this week.  It seems like it has been forever since I posted any lesson help!  Here is an adorable printable to go with making and keeping covenants and promises.  I think I may be on a roll, two different printables and sayings, shhhhheeesshh, within a day of each other!

Give a bag of DONUT's and attach!  "DONUT forget your covenants to achieve CELESTIAL GLORY!"

Simply the Best -- Gift Idea -- Free Printable

Isn't this the cutest idea?  A darling gift to let that Simply Sweet Person in your life, how much you appreciate them!  My dear friend was the brain behind this idea and then I worked my Photoshop magic.  She is giving it as a gift for the primary workers in her ward!    This would be great as a neighbor, friend, teacher, or as a thank you!  

You pick because I am providing the free printable!

Have a Sweet Weekend because you are "Simply" the best! :)
