Girls' Night

For a long time my desire to start a monthly Girls' Night with my daughters resulted in a lot of talk but no action. Finally, several months ago we began doing rather than talking. We had a scrapbooking party in October and in November we held a mini-baby shower for two cousins who live out of state. We got together and wrapped their gifts, then mailed them. We gave a well received Christmas performance to our ward's elderly, followed by a delicious gourmet meal in December. And last month we went to see the movie, "Twilight". Tonight, Melissa taught us all to crochet around burp cloths. We had a good time, although we did feel slightly uncoordinated at first and made plenty of mistakes--every "shoot" or "darn" was accompanied by lots of laughter. I cherish any time I get to spend with these wonderful young women.
