My calling in our ward is Enrichment Leader. It can be a very busy calling, but is very rewarding. I am so lucky to work with so many wonderful women that teach me a great deal about life and myself. Last night, we celebrated the R.S. birthday with a program and dinner centered around the parable of the 10 Virgins from the scriptures. It was such a neat experience. We planned a Mediterranean wedding dinner for 80 women and young women, but ended up feeding at least 98. It was a "loaves & fishes" experience, for sure. It really turned out beautifully due to the hard work of so many women. Our program consisted of 10 sisters dressed as the wise and foolish virgins whose characters were being described by 2 narrators, intermixed with 6 beautiful musical numbers. It was planned with the theme of "Come unto Christ." I am grateful for the opportunity it gave me to draw nearer to Christ as I witnessed all of the hard work the sisters around me put in, and the amazing ways the spirit works. A very neat experience that I hope was enjoyed by all.
(I hope it doesn't sound like I am tooting my own horn.)

Thank heavens that not too long ago your calling was in Young Womens cause my life has been blessed because of it!
It was good to see Tim at the game. He says you are a busy busy supermom! I believe it!
I am also the Enrichment Leader! I just barely got an enrichment board since I have had the calling for over 18 mo., so needless to say I am glad that enrichment nights are quarterly! :)
You and Tim look exactly like you did 13 years ago when you two got married! You have the cutest family!
I hope that you are doing well!
