Ward Dance

 This guy has been growing out that beard since January. Everyone loved it and it was even mentioned in Sacrament meeting twice. Once, the high councilman said that you could tell how much time as changed by the length of Br. Coleman's beard. The second time was the day after this. He finally decided to give it a shave. (It was the day before Mother's Day and it was a nice gift for me.) Because our ward split about a month earlier, there were a lot of releases and callings that Sunday. The counselor in the bishopric who was doing all the releasings made a comment at the end that he probably should have done a special release for Br. Coleman's beard. Too funny!
I have been wanting to have a ward family dance for a while now and decided to do one for my Choice and Accountability Personal Progress project. It was a perfect activity to bring our new ward together. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate. You would think it would be okay in May, but no, we had rain all week and then it snowed a few inches while we were at the dance. There were lots of ward members who couldn't make it because their basements had flooded. Everyone who came, though, had a blast. The young women helped me with decorations and set up. I chose a Candyland theme and it turned out great. My sister came to visit and flew in that morning, so it was so nice to have her help as well.
 We had a photo booth in the corner with props. The kids had a lot of fun with that.

 This is what the road looked like on the way home:

  1. I laughed out loud at the beard comments! He looks so nice clean shaven again.
