"Once Upon a Time" New Beginnings 2010

This year the General Young Women's Presidency under the direction of the first Presidency made some changes to the Young Women Personal Progress Program. We decided to make that the main focus of our New Beginnings program to get the girls off to a great start this year. 

Our Theme was " Once Upon a Time" and we decorated in pink with polka dots. The girls did a skit that introduced the 8 values and it of course started with "Once Upon a Time" We had a brunch and invited the Mom's. They were also invited to earn the YW's Personal Progress Medallion along with their daughters.

Thursday Update (Last one for February)

I have been working on the last items needed for our New Beginnings this Sat. Here is a link to the Class symbols and Motto's I printed and then outline colored. You are welcome to use them.

Finished all the flowers and they are all ready to be pinned on the cute bags we are giving to the girls at New Beginnings!

This is my next project. I purchased this fabric about 5 years ago to make a baby blanket. I got it out a few weeks ago and then ordered the white Ric Rac here. I found some matching Lion Brand Baby Soft in my yarn stash and think it will go great! Come back next week to see how it turns out! 

New Beginnings 2009

Tonight was our Annual Young Women's "New Beginnings" Program. This year it was centered around the 2009 Mutual Theme and Becoming a "Beehive". We sang the song "Be Thou an Example" by Hillary Abplanalp. One of our talented Laurel's played the cello, it was so pritty.
