Thank you, thank you, thank you

No one person was responsible for making last night a lovely evening for those sisters who attended. We are very grateful for all those who helped make it a great night.

We especially wanted to thank the extremely hardworking Enrichment Committee - thank you so, so much Janet and Chris. We had so many meetings, they put in so many hours of work, and we really appreciate it.

Thanks for all those sisters who provided recipes and then cooked those recipes for us to taste on the evening. Thanks also for those who bought a plate of supper even when they were asked. (We have some fantastic, giving sisters in our ward.)

Thank you to Simone who created our wonderful recipe book and made it unique and personal. Thank you to Brother Jim who photocopied 40 copies of the 14 Day Walk with Christ and printed 40 copies of the coloured front cover.

Thanks to Diana for provided (at her own expense) the delicious drink for the evening and it was nice to know Sister Harbeck is still very much thought of in our Ward (as not only the drink was Sister Harback's recipe but so was the shortbread!).

Above you will see two of our gorgeous YSA girls - thanks for coming girls. (We'll get you next time Rach)

Miriam's smocked Christmas balls
Thank you to all the sisters who provided demonstrations for the evening. Great job - interesting, informative, well-prepared and presented. Thank you Janet, Chris, Yvonne, Jill, Maryanne and Miriam.

Thanks to Peggy for helping us exchange our christmas gifts in a fun way.
Thanks to the Primary workers (and Kobie and Kia) for singing such a beautiful song to lift our spirits. Thanks to Fiona and Rachael for playing the piano at very short notice.
Thank you to Chris for provided literally hundreds and hundreds of lights to make the hall look fantastic and all her hard work in setting up.

Thanks to our Relief Society president and all her willing little helpers who support us so much.

Thanks to all the brethren who encouraged and supported their wives to enable them to come along.
Thanks to all those who helped us pack up and enabled us to get home before midnight! We really appreciate it.
