YW Night

Last night was our Young Women In Excellence Night.
As you can see from the invitation it was Oscar Night...
a time for the GIRLS to shine.
They were encouraged to come in formal attire,
or just their BEST Sunday dress.
Of course that means the leaders have to do their best to support
that idea. Well the dress I wore to my brother's wedding is the
dressiest thing I have in my closet.
This is my dear friend and our YW's President.
She is a fantastic leader!

The girls had a great time and were good sports in the dress-up idea.
I didn't get a picture taken until several girls had already left.
I should have also taken a picture of the room is was decorated really cute
with shiny stars hanging from the ceiling, there was a red carpet
to walk on as they entered the room,
and the girls hands were traced and put on a cute page with
their name (like the celebrity sidewalk thing).
After our speaker, we presented each girl with their own
OSCAR and as they came up they got to tell about something
they did this past year, in the area of personal progress.
It as a super night to honor our YW for all their hard work
and helping them to (hopefully) feel special!

That looks like a wonderful evening with YW and a great idea. I see lots of "stars" there--particularly our star Brittany. You're a great leader.

Young Women's was my hardest calling. I felt so much pressure to succeed and you don't get the exact same excitement as from the Primary kids (who think EVERYthing is great!). But, though challenging, its rewarding too.

Your hair looks so cute :-)
