We held our Stake 11-year-old Activity Day on August 22nd. It turned out so nicely! Our theme was "Be Loyal to the Royal Within." As the girls arrived, they walked the red carpet and were draped in a sash that proclaimed them a "Daughter of a King." They were divided into groups and went to classes about modesty, service, making good choices, and testimony. They each participated in sewing stuffed balls for the Humanitarian Center and dedicated their service to President Monson's birthday. Their moms then joined us for a luncheon while President McClellan from the Stake Presidency spoke about "Letting Your Royal Light Shine." My contribution to the day was a scrapbook/journal in which we inserted a picture of each girl so they looked like they were wearing a "crown of righteousness." The pages inside included the For the Strength of Youth pamphlet, a picture of the temple, the Mormonad picture "Be Loyal to the Royal Within," and a page or two from each class. They turned out way cute, if I say so myself. What a wonderful day! (And aren't the sisters I work with in the Presidency adorable? As much on the inside as the out, too. Besides me, they are MaryAnn Wells, Niki Coon and Jennifer Marble. Awesome ladies.) Also, see the slideshow of the rest of my pictures from that day.
