Happy Valentine's Day!

I had some fun with photoshop...
Have a Happy Valentine's Day! :)



We are having a primary activity today and will be going Valentine caroling, singing the following songs. You should sing these to someone you love today...they may be cheesy but I bet they'd still bring a smile to his/her face!

1. If you love me and you know it
Sung to: "If you’re happy and you know it"
If you love me and you know it, Clap your hands.
If you love me and you know it, Clap your hands.
If you love me and you know it,
Then your face will surely show it.
If you love me and you know it, Clap your hands.

Love them all year long.
Especially on Valentine's Day,
As we sing this song!

New Calling

I got a new calling on Sunday...Primary President. It is the first primary calling that I've had, so it'll be interesting. If anyone has ideas for primary, bring em' on! :)

I've already started reading up on everything and I feel like I'm cramming for a test that happens on Sunday. I'm sure I'll do fine, the Lord knows it, I just need to realize it.
