Preschool Program

We had a Christmas Program at preschool. The kids were so cute and did a great job. They sang a few songs, recited a poem and did a little dance to Ellie the elf. After that we had some cookies and hot chocolate.





I had the parent's come and help their child do gymnastics in the gym.  It was fun. Sad thing is...being the teacher and helping the students, I didn't get any pictures of them in the gym. Thanks to Heather, she took some pictures for me of the program.


It was fun but a little more stressful pulling it all together.

 I have to admit, I was feeling a little guilty about doing it, after watching The first presidency Christmas devotional.  The told us not to make this time of year stressful buy attending to many parties and programs etc. that Christmas should be a time to reflect on the lord and the true meaning of Christmas.

A big night


Paige and 11 other young women in our ward earned their Young Women In progress medallion.  12 girls on 12/12/12.  It was a nice program. They had a parent of each girl talk about how personal progress has helped their daughter grow. I got to talk about Paige. She has grown so much over the last few years both physically and spiritually. She loves church, the scriptures and seminary. We are very proud of this accomplishment and also of Paige. 

 Paige posted this on her face book page....
After around six months of completing my Personal Progress, I was finally able to recieve my medalion along with eleven other young women in my ward tonight. Twelve young woman on 12/12/12. Congratulations to all of you! I love you all! Wear your medalion loud and proud :D Thanks to all of you who came and supported us! Love you guys too ♥
Personal Progress has helped m
e so much throughout my life. I have grown A LOT closer to my Savior and Heavenly Father. My testimony has been strengthened a lot as well, and I know that it will continue to strengthen as well. Personal Progress has helped me start good habits, and helped me disocover new talents that I would not have discovered without it. I am so thankful for what Personal Progress has done for me, and cannot wait to start it all over again. I will most definately wear my medalion loud and proud :D
