I was asked to make an Easter treat for each Young Woman in our ward that the leaders could drop by. Here's what I came up with. Well, what I meant to say is here's what I copied off of Pinterest!
Then I was in charge of the joint Young Men/Young Women activity this last Wednesday. We did a Family Feud game. I found a bunch of questions online - we had a good mix of fun questions and church questions. We split the kids into four "families", let them pick family names, and then they faced off two families at a time. I played the game show host. I also spent several hours making the treats... 60 cups of popcorn (using my air popper for the first time ever!) and then I made a cinnamon/caramel/chocolate drizzle popcorn (I modified this recipe from Our Best Bites) and a "poppy chow" popcorn (chocolate, peanut butter, and powdered sugar). It didn't help that I didn't start the popcorn until Tuesday night when I got home from Bunko... close to 10pm!

Finally, I was responsible for teaching the combined YW Easter lesson (complete with handouts and treats of course). I prepared way too much material, but essentially the first half of the lesson was on the atonement and the second half of the lesson was on the resurrection.
Now, a start of a new week means I've gotta finalize everything for our Wednesday evening class activity (we are making fabric flowers - so I've been surfing Pinterest for tutorials)... this includes figuring out a pattern, buying the necessary supplies, and making a sample to make sure I'll be able to teach it! I'm leaning toward making this t-shirt fabric flower because I think it's cute. Fingers crossed I can get this to work! I look forward to having my newly called advisor back mid-May (she's currently visiting her daughter in Japan)...
