Need a Nap?

Can you tell that it's been a long week at the McDonald Household? Too many late nights with Halloween festivities and setting up for the Monthly Relief Society Activity. This is what I discovered when I noticed my house had gotten a little too quiet.

They were all watching Cars 2 for who knows how many times when they all 3 crashed out. The boys on the couch....

Zoe on the chair...I wish I could have joined them, but I was doing many last minute preparations for a very successful activity.

We held an "Angels Among Us" night for November's Relief Society Activity. Everyone was given the opportunity to submit stories about another sister in the ward who had helped them out in a time of need. Who had "saved" them so to speak. They had the option of revealing their name or in submitting stories anonymously. In the end we ended up with close to 43 stories. That night we enjoyed a nice meal, read through the stories, had a musical number, and even had enough time to visit. Things went so great, we were done and cleaned up by 8:30. I'm re-leaved to have it over with. It was the first activity that I was in charge of completely. The counselor over me was released about a month prior and I didn't think it was fair to make her work on it. She was however helpful in putting together an musical number. We'll take December off, since Relief Society is in charge of the ward party and then we'll hopefully get things organized for January.
