Who Knew?

All month we have been preparing for our church's R.S. Birthday Celebration. Tonight was finally the BIG night. Our Activity Organizer, Sis. Gubler, came up with the idea of wanting to play Family Feud. I love games, so of course I was on board with this idea. She put me in charge of coming up with a gift to give the sisters.
What I came up with was an owl necklace. We had 3 different designs to choose from. When they wear them they can always remember "who" they came from and "who" their sisters are. I will have a tutorial on how to make these later.
Then for refreshments Sis. Gubler found these cute little owl cupcakes in a magazine. They followed along perfectly with our "Who" theme.
We even made a bunch of little owls too
We combined everything on one table. That way when they came up to get their dessert they could also pick out their gift.
Instead of calling our game Family Feud we called it "Who Knew" Hear is Sis. Gubler as the Host and me as Vana White. Yes, I know Vana is on Wheel Of Fortune, but somebody had to pull the answer cards off and keep score
For our teams we have the COOL KIDS (who ended up being our winners)
and the ROCKIN' SOCKIN' RELIEF SOCIETYOnce we started it got competitive REAL quick. Melanie means business. She is determined to hit that buzzer first. I didn't know these ladies could get so vicious.
What? Sis. Daniel only got 4 out of the 50 votes for, "Name a sister in our Ward?" Come on people she is our Relief Society president. She should have been the #1 answer.
People kept arguing some of the answers. But Sis. Gubler is like, "Hey don't blame me. I didn't make these answers up. I called all of you! This is what y'all came up with"
The highlight of my whole night was when Rose came up to play. She was so quick to buzz the buzzer and then froze. She couldn't remember her answer for anything. She kept blaming it on old age. It was the sweetest and funniest thing of the whole night. I Love her to death. Sis. Daniel had to end up coming up and telling her an answer in her ear because she could never come up with one.

I have to say all of our hard work paid off. We had such a fun time. I love when I am able to get together with all of these wonderful ladies. "Who Knew" they could be such fun?

Now remember the question....Do you know "Who" you are? I can never forget "Who" my sisters are. They always bring a smile to my face.

Button Bracelet

My daughter starts her first Ice Skating lessons tomorrow so we were trying to figure out a way on how to do her hair to keep it out of her face. We came up with a french braid that starts at the top and up the back and ends up in the middle. We cut some ribbon to tie off her crazy hair knots. I will post a tutorial on the hair-do later. Anyways, we were trying to figure out what to do with the left over ribbon.

We came up with a bracelet...
First, I took the ribbon and measured it around her wrist. Then took an old button I had laying around and sewed it onto one end.
Then I folded the ribbon over to measure how long the button was, Then cut a hole big enough for it to fit through
Again, fold the tip of the ribbon so both of the cut ends of your slit are puffing out. Take a lighter and singe the cut. That way your ribbon will not fray later on.And there you have it folks. A matching bracelet to go along with her hair ties.I say this chick-a-D is ready for some ice skating. She has her hair done and a nice accessory to go along with it. I don't think my daughter could get anymore ExCiTeD?
