Relief Society’s ‘Something Extraordinary’ Birthday Celebration!

Last Thursday we had our RS Birthday celebration. It was soo much fun! We watched this great video, I can’t seem to upload it but the website is:

We also worked on ‘no sew’ fleece blankets and played a ‘getting to know you’ game. We had 18 pictures of some of the sisters in the ward with 3 facts about them to try and guess who they were. My good friend, Leah, won the prize, GUESS WHO! We had a great cake done by another sister in the ward who is extremely talented. Mark was on babysitting duty with 2 other elders. It was funny to peak your head in to the nursery. The older kids were all playing hand-held games, the middle age group was watching a video and the youngest were just chilling on the floor in front of the men. I love getting together with the other sisters and just have fun together!
Can you guess which one was me? My 'fun facts' were: a) I’ve never been out of the country b) the first time I drove a car (and crashed a car) was when I was 3 c) I wanted to go to Ohio on my honeymoon but instead went to Hawaii which is where my husband wanted to go.
Still not sure? This one is me, don't you think Julie looks just like I did as a kid?
Here is a picture of the set up, I thought the decorations were so cute! Everything turned out great.
These are the 'no sew' blankets we did...Thank you JoAnn's for having a sale right before, saved us a lot of money :)
Here's the nursery with the elders and kids.
Thanks everyone who helped out, came or even just sent in a picture. Can't wait to get together again sometime soon!
