YW in Excellence

This year we decided to do Young Women in Excellence as a special sacrament meeting at church, and then the girls displayed their projects in the overflow for everyone come see afterward.  The idea being to give everyone a chance to see what the girls have been working on instead of just their family. 

It was our first time trying it as a sacrament meeting, so we weren't sure how it would turn out, but it ended up coming together really well.  The girls did an amazing job.  We even had one girl with laryngitis who got a concussion at her soccer game the day before who still came and did her part.  These girls are rock stars!

The young women projects are 10 hours of work based off of one of the eight Young Women values.  I was really impressed with their projects. 

 We're missing a few girls in the picture...

 Afterward, we put together a luncheon for the girls. 

 I just adore all these beautiful people!!
