Babies on Parade / Cinqo De Mayo

We had a blast at the last Enrichment! Not only did we have the cute babies that were born within the last year being showed-off we have a wonderful Cinqo De Mayo meal!

The decorations were provided by the excellent food committee that was headed by Willa Johnson & Brenda Armstrong.

The cute moms & their beautiful babies!

A quilt was tied.

Hair bow holders made.

Cute signs were painted.

And crayon cozies were sewn!

Merlene Johnson also taught a fun class on activities and fun things you could do with your children and grandchildren (wish I would've gotten pictures because it was fantastic!)

Stay tuned for next months Service Round-up!

(We're rounding up some service to be auctioned off!)

Stake Relief Society "Ten Virgins"

I (Linda Croft) have been involved with a stake drama and luncheon, "The Ten Virgins". Each ward provided items which reminded us of Israel or her people. We had no idea in advance as to what belongings were going to be delivered Friday for use as decorations.

(Yeah for Tamsyn! Who played one of the Ten Virigins)

We draped the ceiling with a professional stage backdrop using neutral fabric, the walls had white Christmas lights under gorgeous gold embossed fabric, tables were exquisite, the bubbling water fountain in the middle of the gymnasium set on many oriental rugs.

The food was chicken salad, pita bread, grapes, olives, vegetables, humus, fresh strawberries with dip, chocolate cake or lemon cake dessert served in a small clear glass. It was absolutely lovely.

The program was enlightening as well as inspirational, after modifying the original script to fit better into our theme, it was very special. Appropriate recorded music played from 10 through lunch, it was very subtle. We used battery operated tea lights scattered on the table, plus each character had her own tea light inside her special oil lamp which she held as she spoke her part. --Linda Croft
