Youth Olympics

Each year the Glendale Arizona Stake holds Youth Olympics for 3 weeks in January. It is for ages 14-18 and there are all kinds of events (chess, table tennis, volleyball, cooking, photography, track & field, etc...) I participated as a youth growing up and now I am the Young Women's president so I was very busy the last 3 weeks with all the activities. Not only do I get to work with all the girls at church, one of them happens to be my niece, Carley. It's so much fun. She made a video this year for cinematography and got first place! Here is a link to the video. It is well worth your 4 minutes of time. For more information on our Youth Olympics check out this article in the New Era (our youth church magazine). You might see a quote from a certain 16 year old (me!).

December in review

December flew by with moving in, getting unpacked, school parties, church parties, family parties, christmas cookie decorating, gingerbread house building, and spending time with family. Santa brought Carter a basketball hoop and he was so excited! Charlotte got a shopping cart and pushes it around everywhere.
