Ok ladies, here's the dealio:
Us leaders have been itching to hold an auction night where you can spend all the personal progress bucks that you've saved! We've got things like scrapbooking supplies, girly insulated mugs, hair/body care items, candy, trinkets, etc....and for the big prizes, we have things like a cut/style from Sister Rex and a photoshoot and pics from Sister Syal! But here's the minor problemo: we've had a hard time handing out the big bucks! We've had a hay-day handing out the $1 bills because you guys naturally do so many wonderful little acts of kindness! But we can't hand out the big bucks unless your experiences and projects are getting done. You know you guys can tear this up if you wanted to!! So here's the low-down all over the again. We've made some adjustments in hopes that it will be more appealing to you!
1. For every experience you accomplish, you'll get $10 Personal Progress Bucks!
2. For every project you accomplish, you'll get $50 Personal Progress Bucks!
3. New $ Challenge: We will be doing a LOT to prepare for trek. This includes things like fitness/health prep, family history/genealogy, journaling, cooking/meal planning, sewing, learning and memorizing music or playing an instrument, etc. And guess what?? It totally goes along with your personal progress requirements!! So here's the deal - for EVERY personal progress project or experience you find in the book that can be accomplished alongside our trek preparations, we will give you $5 Personal Progress Bucks!! That's $5 for EVERY IDEA! Grab your PP Books, read through them, and circle or highlight the ones you think can be easily applied, then show us your books and tell us your ideas!!! We'll pay upon idea-delivery. :)
Now here's another secret on how personal progress can be so much easier for you to accomplish: we do SO much on Sunday's and Wednesday's that can count towards personal progress! If you know what activities are coming up, make a goal that centers around it and then use our mutuals or Sunday lessons to help fulfill the requirements!
We're not just blowing smoke at you! Personal Progress is not only easy to plan into your daily life, but it will INCREASE the quality of your life. So what's to lose? Nothing! There's only so much to gain!
The laurels and miamaids had a combined culture night! Each of us took a country to represent and we brought interesting facts and food from that country. It was a great night of fun and happy tastebuds! :) Thanks girls for preparing so well and sharing your knowledge with us!!
