CHRISTMAS ACTIVITIES

IT HAS BEEN AWHILE SINCE DOING SOME CRAFTS FOR THE HOLIDAYS.  I  WAS ASKED TO GIVE A CLASS AT THE DECEMBER RELIEF SOCIETY ENRICHMENT NIGHT.  I MADE UP A STORY ABOUT WHERE RUDOLPH GOT HIS LIGHT AND  WANTED TO GIVE EACH SISTER A RUDOLPH THE RED NOSE REINDEER ORNAMENT AT THE END OF MY STORY.  I ENDED UP MAKING 68 SINCE I WANTED TO GIVE EACH OF MY GRANDCHILDREN ONE TOO.



 I REALLY ENJOYED MAKING SOMETHING CREATIVE  AGAIN.  IT SEEMS LIKE I HAVE BEEN DOING MORE WRITING INSTEAD OF MAKING THINGS  LATELY.  DON GOT SUCH A KICK OUT OF ME WITH MY GLUE GUN AND PRODUCTION LINE,
HE WANTED TO TAKE THESE PICTURES.


 DECEMBER 5TH IS WHEN I GAVE MY CLASS.  THIS IS THE SET UP I HAD FOR MY STORY.  IT WAS A FUN EVENT AND I  HAD MANY COMMENTS HOW MUCH THE WOMEN ENJOYED IT.

 I EVEN GAVE OUT A PATTERN FOR THE  ORNAMENT SO THAT THE SISTERS COULD MAKE THEM FOR THEIR CHILDREN OR GRANDCHILDREN.


 THE RELIEF SOCIETY MADE A WONDERFUL GLASS ORNAMENT FOR ALL OF US WITH A NAIL  WRAPPED IN A BOW.  IT REPRESENTED WHY CHRIST WAS BORN AND HIS MISSION ON EARTH.  THE SISTERS ALWAYS DO A GOOD JOB IN ALL THEY DO.

 SOME HOMETEACHING PLATES READY TO BE GIVEN TO THEIR FAMILIES.   SUSAN REED AND I ARE A GOOD TEAM FOR MAKING PLATES FOR OUR HUSBANDS TO GIVE OUT.  WHAT WOULD THEY DO WITHOUT US?  SUSAN IS AN EXCELLENT COOK AND I LOVE WORKING WITH HER


PLATES FOR MY VISITING TEACHERING SISTERS.  THOSE THAT COULDN'T COME TO ENRICHMENT NIGHT STILL GOT SOME REINDEER WITH SOME GOODIES.

THIS TIME OF YEAR IS SO FUN.  I FEEL SO GOOD THAT I'M ABLE TO STILL DO THESE KIND OF THINGS.  I NEVER TAKE MY HEALTH FOR GRANTED.  IN FACT, TODAY I HAVE ANOTHER PAINFUL BLADDER INFECTION.  I THINK THESE COME INTO MY LIFE TO KEEP ME HUMBLE.  THIS IS MY 12TH BLADDER INFECTION THIS YEAR.  ANOTHER ROUND OF ANTIBIOTICS......WILL THIS EVER END?  AT LEAST IT'S NOT CANCER.
