January '11 primary activity

Back in October I accepted a calling as the second counselor in primary. Of course it's the counselor over scouts and I just so happened to take on Riley's girl scout troop and took a position on the PTA board... That's how I do it I guess, all or nothing!
The end of the year was crazy busy with everything, but we really wanted to have an awesome activity early in the year to introduce the new theme and for the kids and teachers to get to know each other.
The 2011 theme is - I KNOW THE SCRIPTURES ARE TRUE
We are so excited for the kids to get to learn more about the scriptures!
There was a tent for each class- (some had two classes) They had a little sack breakfast together and colored some scripture book marks and put jewels on a little treasure chest we got them.
our CTR 6 class

Luke's Valiant 9 class - he was missing several friends

Valiant 10 &11- love these big kids- they are so great!

Cole was able to come and participate since D is now Chloe's CTR 4 teacher. Cole totally snuck off with the sunbeams and totally fit in. Most of his friends are in there so he had no clue that it wasn't really his class.

King Benjamin (brother Jensen) made an appearance. I think he did a great job at getting the kids' attention. Cole was so excited- he kept telling us that is was Jesus.

I am so grateful for this new calling. I have always loved the primary and serving in it, but this has brought so many blessings into our home. It is a lot of work but worth it when you see the kids grow week to week. I love the other women I serve with. We work together so well, and manage to have a little fun as well.
