Temple Anyone?

Hey girls and leaders!

I know that it is a busy weekend, but I made reservations to go to the new Oquirrh Temple Open House this Saturday (July 25th) morning. I know that some of you weren't able to go when the ward did so I wanted to make sure that another opportunity was available to you. We will be meeting at the church at 7:30 am--Trust me....it is worth waking up early for!! Let me know if you are planning on attending!!

Hope to see you there!! I think you are all so GREAT!!!

Love ya! Jamie :)

PS. Breakfast will be involved. :)

Self Defense Kicked BOOTY!!!

I hope that everyone enjoyed this activity as much as I did! Leave a comment and let us know if this is one that we would ever want to repeat! We missed those of you who weren't there! But here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure!








Yay for a BLOG!!

Hey Girls and Leaders!

We thought that this would be a fantastic way to get information out to you and your parents regarding Young Women's stuff! We hope that you will use this resource often to give us feedback on activities, post pictures, and share your testimonies so that we may all be strengthened and uplifted.

We love you so much and think about you every day!! I was reading in President Hinckley's Stand a little Taller and found this quote entitled VIRTUOUS LIVING:

"It all begins with our own personal virtue. Reformation of the world begins with reformation of self. We cannot hope to influence others in the direction of moral virtue unless we live lives of virtue. The example of our virtuous living will carry greater influence than will all the preaching, postulating, and theorizing in which we might indulge. We cannot expect to lift others unless we are standing on higher ground."

You are all incredible examples to me of wonderful and virtuous women IN the world. Thank you for being who you are! I look forward to continually growing right along side you!

Trek is in 1 WEEK!! I hope that those of you who are going are preparing yourselves spiritually as well as physically!! It will be a wonderful experience. Those of you who are not coming with us this time--plan on being there next time! Make that decision now to take the opportunity when it comes your way! I promise that you won't be disappointed!!

Love you all again! Have a WONDERFULLY FANTASTIC rest of your week!
