Primary Halloween Par-Tay!

My new friend Emily Vorwaller and I are in Primary together and we had a halloween party and it was a HUGE success! Having 32 kids show up probably doesn't sound like very much to most people I'm sure, but for our branch it was amazing! We have seen such a huge growth of kids coming to primary these last few months.  It just makes me smile thinking about all the little miracles that are happening! We had such a good time! We have such cute kids in Primary!
We made Pumpkin Spiders...
Had Face Painting...we're so lucky to have an actual artist in our branch, Sister Cox.  She was the definite favorite of the night! The kids loved it and she did such a great job!
We had relays, decorated cookies, played pin the nose on the pumpkin, ring toss with a witch hat, and had such a fun night!  I'm so glad to be in Primary and to have Emily here now too!
Josey and Ruby, my friends adorable girls!

Only YOU can prevent forest fires!

We had the firefighters come to school this past week and the kids were SO excited! We saw them in the morning and I don't think they stopped talking about it all day! We had such a fun time!
They were so excited to see Smoky!  I was laughing so hard though because they kept asking,
"Are you really a bear?"  "If you're a bear...what do you eat then?" 
(We had just been reading about bears and what they eat...)
 I bet Smoky didn't think he was going to get an interrogation! :)
They were so excited to see a rainbow! They were showing the kids how far the water can go from the truck! Aren't those cute little Jr. Fire Chiefs!
The kids were beaming on that truck! I stayed behind with one of the girls who was really scared!
My cute kids! No matter how tired I am when I get home, those little smiles will always melt my heart!
