Book Of Mormon Challenge!

Every week we are going to try to have someone post where they are in the BOM and what they learned from that week. I will do it this week and next week we will have a guest blogger!

I read Ether this week and it was all about the brother of Jared. One of my favorite scriptures I read, was Ether 4:19. It says, "And blessed is he that is found faithful unto my name at the last day, for he shall be lifted up to dwell in the kingdom prepared for him from the foundation of the world." I think that we all need to remember that if we always have faith, then we will be blessed.

Watch next week for another Book of Mormon Challenge Blogger. :)

Keep Reading!

Laurel's 80's Night!

This week for our Laurel activity we decided to do an 80's Karaoke Night! It turned out that we didn't karaoke. We were too busy discussing the upcoming homecoming plans. But it was fun to dress up, munch on some yummy snacks, and catch up with each other. There was even some previewing of the homecoming gowns. Here are our 80's pic's.

Wendy and I! My leg looks huge, I know. But do you love my leg warmers over the skinny jeans! Kati, Lexi, and Taylor! I love Taylor's sweet side pony and Kati's off the shoulder shirt!
Mireya and Lea! Love the cute face, Mireya!
