Activity Days

So excited about my new calling as Activity Days leader.  With a fun partner and a great group of girls (ages 8 & 9), we meet twice a month to help the girls bond, pass things off, have fun, and teach the girls new skills.  It’s a perfect calling for me with my crazy schedule, and I love working with the girls.  Sophie and Sage lit up and were thrilled when they found out I was one of their Activity Day leaders :)

Then noodles with chopsticks (love how my girls eat with chop sticks, hee, he, I guess we should practice that), moon cake & our favorite white rabbit candies.  They left with red envelopes after discussing the meaning behind it all.  A big hit with the girls! 

This week (below), we celebrated Valentines…

They were able to make another one- their choice.  Sophie and Sage instantly chose Sara & Kennedy, their BFF’s from our old neighborhood.  Missing their old friends, but making new ones fast!

Fun times at Activity Days!
