fabulous YOU


In Young Women's at my church, we have girls who are turning twelve and coming into youth program.  As a presidency, we like to go in their homes and personally welcome them.  This is also a great time to get to know their parents better too. We bring a gift bag full of goodies (example, Personal Progress book, Journal, Strength of Youth booklet, Torch Necklace, a copy of the YW's theme with the values listed, as well as the scripture for the year that we are focusing on). So this brings me to the reason that I am posting pictures.  The other day, I was going through different blogs and came across a fantastic idea. Go here to check it out. Then, I was at Walmart and came across this cute gift bag that had the saying "Fabulous YOU" ( it was the colors of the bag that drew me in). S-O-L-D!!  I LOVED IT!! When I think of these sweet young girls, I think of FABULOUS young women. So to help celebrate their arrival into the program how fitting for them to receive their own cupcake in a jar. SWEET!!! I hope the girls like it.  I know that I sure do.

Thanks! Charlotte, you are too kind. I would love to have Emma and Elaina in YW's with me (you notice that I didn't mention, Abbie). Hopefully, I will be out of YW's by then. She will be hard to handle. I'm paying my dues now. How did you like the cream cheese pumpkin bread and muffins? I thought the bread was really good. Sure have missed you today. {{HUGS}}

You are so talented. You take an idea and run with it. You give it your own personal touch. Sweet!!!!
