Loving the Love

Today's Valentine's Day wasn't just about the flutterby feelings for a special boy or the anticipation of a secret admirer. Oh no. Today's Valentine's Day proved to be so much more.

A couple of days ago at our YW game night the young women cut out hearts and valentines for Makelle and Taisha Barton (two of our newest young women!), stuck them all over the their home, rang the doorbell, and ran like the wind! Today at church Makelle and Taisha surprised the young women back by presenting them with this massive personalized Valentine card and individual treat bags!




In addition to this, Emily Overby made homemade chocolate bowls filled with chocolately goodness for everyone, Sister Hill gave everyone a treat filled bag, the leaders got chocolate roses, Sister Neff made cupcakes, and Sister Syal made heart sugar cookies. (Wish I had a picture of every gift!) The treats were all amazingly delicious, but what was even more amazing was the thoughtfulness and love that everyone shared through the treats. And to top it all off, Sister Neff gave a wonderful lesson on truly loving our family and friends and showing that true love through our actions.


Yes, the 3rd hour of church in young women's today was bursting with love. Thank you, girls, for showing us what it really means to give and receive love.
