Relief Society Birthday Party






























Last night our ward did their Relief Society Birthday Party. As a tradition, sisters can sign up to decorate tables. My good friend, and neighbor, Misty and I signed up to do one together. The theme for the night was "The Woman I Am" so Misty and I decided to go off of that idea for our table. The angle we decided to portray, was that they woman you are, is who you are when you aren't fulfilling one of your many roles in life (i.e. mother, wife, employee, student, etc.). We set the table with a variety of things women do for hobbies. Sewing, cooking, sports, drawing, gardening, reading, you get the idea. And we decided that when women explore their hobbies, gifts, and talents, and develope those, then they have so much more to put into their "roles". So ya, I don't know if anyone who sat at our table gathered all that from a few objects sitting in front of them, but I still thought our table looked really nice. And it was the only one with candy on it, so that was a major success.

Dinner was excellent and so was the program that followed. And, as always, it was really nice to be out of the house socializing with other women. :)
