Christmas Box Bridals

I thought L was a little crazy when she asked ME to take her bridals. They are pretty important pictures and I didn't know if I could pull it off. I think we got some good ones. Thanks for trusting me!

Lesson #25 lm2 The law of Sacrifice

I found the pretty violin picture when I googled violin images

I read the story "The Violin" by President Thomas S. Monson. found here

I burned each girl a CD of some of my favorite LDS music, And used this handout for the CD case cover.

4th of July

I thought these were all cute & inexpensive little gifts perfect for Friends, Visiting teachers, or my YW.

1- this idea came from eighteen25 I found this blog not that long ago and I am in ♥! check it out.
I found the cheapest Snaps at Maceys.

2- I was talking to a friend about ideas for her lesson and this is what she is making for her YW. What a cute simple gift. I found this picture HERE

3- I have never thought about putting a cupcake in a plastic cup. How Genius. I thought this was super cute! Found at Crafting Chicks. They even have a free download for the topper.

I absolutely ♥♥♥ the 4th of July. It is simply magical. I can't wait to make all of these cute little goodies and celebrate in Style!!

#23 lm2 Fasting Brings Blessings

I made the girls these cute earings (in their favorite colors) and just attatched them to this weeks handout. They ended up costing me $0.40 a pair. (Cheaper than buying them a candybar) I found the button things here

Challenge

Jane is one of the Homemaking/enrichment/whatever we call it now, leader in her ward. She is having a Muslin Challenge. She had a sign-up sheet and these examples on the table. Everyone that signed up gets 1 yard of muslin to design whatever they want. I can't wait to see what people come up with. I thought it was a fun idea.

Lesson #22 lm2 Counceling with the Lord

I used the "pretzel" idea I found HERE. I just made some chocolate dipped pretzels and put them in a cellophane bag and attached this little quote. Super Easy

Lesson #21 lm2 Sustaining Missionaries through letters.

This was the "handout" I made for this weeks lesson. These Notepads came in a pack of 6 at Walmart for $2.67. I just added the cute paper on top with each girls initial. They loved them.

Earlier in the week I sent each girl a letter in the mail. So during the lesson I asked them what they thought/felt about getting a letter in the mail. They all said it made them feel special that I had taken time out of my week to write & mail them. They also said they liked the cute postage stamp. It is always fun to get FUN/CUTE things in the mail.

At the end of the lesson I brought some cards that we all wrote on to mail to the missionaries in our ward.

little liberty

My cousin asked me to take a few pics of her little girl Liberty. Little sinker did not want to sleep, she was so alert for being 2 weeks old. But we got a few good ones.

l&j [part1]

my {christmas box} friend asked if i'd take a few pics of her and her fiance. It was a little crazy this day, snowing one minute, and then the sun would peak out for just a minute.

l&j [part2]

Thanks for being good sports while I made you pose in front of dumpsters! The sewer smell was pretty awesome too (:
You two are beautiful and so NOT "awkward".
