Youth programs at church January 23rd 2008


Jewel with
the Activity Days
group (8-12)






Dakota with YM basketball

Wednesday nights are fun for the kids. Dakota has his youth program with other teens (12-18) every week and Jewel has her group every other week. They both are run by the church and help the kids develop friendships with other Latter Day Saint children while doing a variety of activities. They both love going!!

The girls read a book 'The Sisters Grimm' which Jewel enjoyed very much. The young men practiced basketball for the Stake basketball games held every winter.
Patricia drives the kids two Wednesdays and switches off with another lady who takes Dakota . Twice a month on Wednesdays she brings him home, while Patricia gets Jewel ready for bed.

Daniel is preparing for a one day trip on Monday to Connecticut for training. He has Stake High Council meetings tonight. Dakota wants to see the movie 'The Spirit of the Marathon' tonight. It is a one night showing.

Temp= 16 degrees 50% chance of snow.

trivia: Actor Heath Ledger dies in Manhattan from suspected pill overdose

gratitude: looking on the internet, I saw the housing market problems and the many foreclosures. I am grateful that we have our home and the kids have a place that is theirs. I pray that we will be able to continue to provide this for them.

Patricia's training: She is in week two of running/Pilates training. So far so good. The actual dieting will come in March when her metabolism has increased and she picks out which diet plan to follow. Slim Fast, Alli, Weight Watchers or just plain eating less???
