YW Sports Survey and Service Project Info
Hey Girls!
I have posted a survey on the right regarding YW sports. Please take the survey so that I can report back to the Stake. Which activities would you like to do?
Also, remember that this Wednesday (Oct. 14) is going to be our service project for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We are going to watch a little video about the Susan Komen Foundation which is really amazing, put together little goodie bag for all the women in our ward, and deliver the goodies to the women in our ward. We will have a PRETTY IN PINK contest and award the person with the most pink worn!! IF YOU CAN NOT COME ON WEDNESDAY PLEASE CALL ME OR LEAVE A COMMENT HERE! We will still meet at 7 pm at the church. So, here is the run-down for Wednesday...
1) WEAR PINK PINK PINK!!
2) Bring a coat or jacket as it might be cold while delivering.
3) Wear good shoes to walk/run in.
Leaders--I need to know if you will be there and able to help take YW to areas in the Ward. If we all work together it shouldn't take too long so please let me know if you will not be attending (except you Heather--I know that you won't be there.)
Thanks girls and I hope to see you all there! It will be a wonderful opportunity for you to reach out to your community. It's a small task but who knows...maybe someone's life will be saved because YOU reminded them to take a moment to take care of themselves before it was too late. :) I love you all!~ Jamie

Kickin' It with Chelsea!
So I don't know about you, but going to Chelsea's soccer game ROCKED MY SOCKS! I had so much fun even though it was beastly freezing and Taylorsville came out victorious in the end (BOO TAYLORSVILLE--That's right Jordan...you heard me! ;) ) Nah it was a great game and I hope that everyone had a good time. Isn't it so much fun to support one another?! Isn't it so great to have your sistas in the gospel yelling your name and embarrassing you in front of the entire sutdent section?! Ahhhh Good times!! Here is the proof:
Lisa looks so cute!! Don't you all think that Lisa is the cutest Aussie around?!
Our own little T-ville cheer squad! It was so fun having Jordan and her sisters with us even though they were confused the whole time as to who they should root for! ;)
Go Chelsea Go!!
Run Chelsea Run!
Kristen and Lisa--You don't even look like you were cold!?
See Chelsea? She is in the middle--nobody wanted to mess with her...
Before the snow fell....
Cassy, Kassy, Karey, and Baylee all snuggling it up! Yay for Karey's supply of blankets! Thanks Karey! And thanks for the great activity!!
Random picture that I never put up! Heather, Geniece, and Jamie after Geniece went through the temple and was sealed to her hubsters! We so love you Gee!!

Time to Evaluate!
Hey Girls and Leaders!
We had some great activities in the month of August but now is the time to evaluate them--what went well, what didn't, would you like to do again, and what do you think was great to do only once :). Here are the activities that we did in August!
Etiquette Dinner with YM- The YM planned and prepared a nice dinner for the YW. They escorted us to our seats and we all shared a meal together with our "dates".
Back to School Bash- (Stake activity) dinner and lots of socializing and games.
Personal Progress "P" Party- Everyone dressed up in anything "p" and brought a snack to share. Lesson on knowledge and mingling talking about Personal Progress and whatnot.
Baptisms at the Temple- cookies and temple baptisms at the Jordan River Temple.
We ask you to evaluate these activities so that next year when we plan activities we can see what worked and what didn't. Please don't worry about hurting anyone's feelings. Let us know what worked well for you and what can be done better. (ie. leaving at rush hour for the temple baptisms was not such a smart idea--next time we'll plan to be earlier.) :)

Good Luck at School!!
Wow! I can hardly believe that summer is already over!! I hope that you all have had a wonderful break from school but that you are eagerly looking forward to a new year of education!
I have always loved going back to school!! I am so excited for each of you as some of you are starting out at a whole new school, some with new friends that you met over the summer, and some of you just with a new perspective on what you want to get out of your time at school this year. I hope that you all make the best of it and don't simply say to yourself "Life will be better when I'm done with school." Life just brings on other complications once you are out of school so take advantage of the today and ENJOY IT!
President Hinckley said this about YOU:
"We have never had a stronger generation of young men and women than we have today. Surrounded by the forces that would pull them down and tremendous pressures to pull them away from time-tested virtues, they are going forward with constructive lives, nuturing themselves both intellectually and spiritually. We have no fears or doubts concerning their future."
I agree with this statement whole-heartedly especially as I have been blessed with the opportunity to associate with each of you. You are each individually incredible and I foresee great things in your lives if you continue to walk uprightly before your Heavenly Father. I know that He will bless you for doing your best!
Good luck at school!! Have fun!! Enjoy every minute--even the excrutiating ones in the middle of SATs, and course exams, and super long novels (We've been there...). I love you girls and I know that the other leaders of our ward and stake admire you for who you are too. Have a wonderful new school year!

Feedback on July activities
Ok girls! We had a busy July, but I want to get some honest feedback about the activities that we did. What do you think went well? What could be better for next time? Should we ever do that activity again? Here are the activities that we've done lately....
Water Games at the park--squirt guns and water kickball.
Freezer Jam-- made homemade freezer jam, read a talk, ate homemade rolls, kept 1 and delivered 1 jam to someone in need.
Self-Defense-- retired police officer came and taught us how to defend ourselves.
Beehive activity- party and games while older girls were on Trek.
Truly be honest about these activities and tell us how they can be even better. We are always looking for ways to improve and make sure that our activities give variety for everyone! Also feel free to make any activity suggestions as we are still planning activities for the rest of the year!

Stake Trek and Brighton Camp 2009!!
What a wonderful opportunity it was to go on Trek with you older girls and to visit the younger girls at Brighton! I hope that through both experiences you all grew closer to our Savior. I know that I have a greater appreciation for those incredible Saints that traveled so far to establish the church in a place free from persecution and tyranny. I wanted to post a few pictures for everyone to enjoy, but for those of you who went to either event, would you please post your own thoughts in the comments so that everyone can see how you grew from the experiences you had then we can all grow together! I love you girls so much and I am so proud of those of you who attended both Trek and Brighton Camp this year!!
