April 2012

April was a while ago, but I'm determined to catch up this blog!
I don't remember a whole lot of what we did, but here are some pictures.





It was nice out so we spent a lot of time playing outside.
The kids love playing in the sandbox!


Most of what I remember from this month has to do with my calling in Young Womens.
I had been the Beehive advisor for about 9 months and then everyone got released.  The same night I was released I was also called back in to be the 2nd counselor, so I was still over the Beehives.  I was super excited, because I really love working in the Young Women's program. 
Our first task as a new presidency was our camp fundraiser.  It was a dinner and bake sale.  The picture below is of cupcakes I made for them.  I made a cake and mint chocolate truffles too, but I can't find the pictures.  This was my first time using gum paste and it wasn't too bad to work with.  
The bake sale went so well.  It was a little hectic, but everyone in the ward was so generous and they really helped all the girls make more than enough money for camp.


  

One day the kids had been playing outside and got really dirty.  I put them on the counter to just wash their hands and feet off, but little by little they got all the way in the sink.  Of course I was right there the whole time, so I allowed it, but it was just funny that they wanted to get in. 
Since then they have taken more sink baths. :)




Here's a picture of Wyn taking a picture of herself.


One Sunday afternoon we gave stripped Myles down to his undies and gave him a haircut.  While his hair was falling to the ground, Wyn was picking up his clothes and putting them on.  She's just so funny!  Love this little lady!
