Read to Feed

I don't know the exact name of it. I think Read to Feed is wrong, but it was pretty cool anyway. We went to help organize the books for our activity and it was a lot of fun. They have tons of books. There is going to be national news there for three days interviewing the young man that started all of this. The money they earn goes to Food Share here in Florence. Here are some pictures.


It was really hard to get all the girls pictures, they kept moving! :)

Cart Racing

Here are a few pictures of our activity last Wednesday. We took the girls to FM and divided them up into two teams, they were to use the alphabet and find things that would be useful in an Emergency situation. The winning team got to pick the ice cream. It was fun.
Anna is on the electric cart because of a badly sprained ankle.

It was fun to do this, it was our rainy day backup plan. Our original was to go geocaching, but it was cold and wet out. That will have to save for a sunny day.

Getting ready for Trek and other pioneer themes

The girls all need to make skirts for trek and another activity we are having in September. We had angels that came to help, Shirley Kilmer, Joann Mower, Carol Parish and Amy Wade. Thank you, you wonderful women, for coming and helping and letting us use all the RS sewing machines and supplies. We couldn't have done it without you.

We aren't quite done yet, but we will be. Most of them have at least one skirt done (they need two) and we still need to make an apron for them. We'll do that in a couple of weeks. It will be fun to have something on had to wear to all the pioneer things.
