Activity Girls Dinner

 
Once Katie turned eight she started attending Activity Days 
(what is activity days you ask?: Primary activity days give girls ages 8-11 opportunities to interact with each other and have wholesome fun by participating in creative, cultural, and service activities. They give children the opportunity to put into action the principles they have been taught during Sunday Primary and in their homes. Activity days are typically held twice a month).

 Katie loves every second of Activity Days!! Not to mention she has amazing leaders that only add to the fun!
Last week the activity was held at our house since Dara's (the awesome leader) house is under construction. The activity was making dinner and then having the missionaries over to eat.
 The girls washed their hands and helped prepare the meal while other girls helped to set the table...

After the table was set and the meal was cooking the girls sat down to have a little lesson on manners and dinner table etiquette.  
 Finally, it was time for dinner. The guests arrived just in time and the girls were so excited to serve them the dinner they prepared!
 I kept having to walk away and dry my eyes because I was so touched by these girls and how sweet each and every one of them are. I love that my girls are surrounded by such wonderful people! It was such a special night and such an honor to host this cute activity in our home.

speaking of home and activity...
Bryant helped keep our little two and Dara's youngest entertained in the family room while the activity day girls put on their dinner. Activity of choice: jump roping!
