Enchanted Enrichment

Last night was a very special evening for me. I was in charge of the Enrichment meeting for our ward. The theme was gratitude for our spouses, so naturally the husbands were invited too. Reagran (the food coordinator) and I worked so hard to make each couple feel like they were at a nice, romantic restaurant. Everything went perfectly and I was bursting with happiness. As we sat at the tables with our dear friends surrounding us, I was so thankful for the blessings I have in my life. It makes me excited to get in "holiday mode."

This is a giant chalkboard we had on the stage. After this picture was taken, someone wrote the menu, of the evening, in beautiful script.
This is my Reagran. She is my dear friend. Without her, this night would never have happened. She is a miracle worker. I love her creativity and selflessness. She is a kindred spirit and I am thankful to have her in my life.

That was such a fun night! You and Reagran are an amazing duo-I am so amazed at how you make seemingly impossible things come together. I am so lucky you moved to this crazy little cow town-I have so much fun with you! :)
