Movie Night

Sometimes, it's nice to just kick back with a fun movie and a few delicious snacks.

This "kit" was a little more prep than most boxed and prepared items but it was still super simple and absolutely delicious.

We watched the sweet and very underrated Penelope, a lovely little modern romance about a girl with a pig nose for adventure.

Dating Do's & Don'ts

John Hilton III wrote a fun book for LDS youth and their leaders called,
"I Lost My Phone Number, Can I Have Yours?
Pickup Lines That Don't Work,
Scriptural Advice that Does!"

John has made his book available for free as a PDF download.

Topics from his book include:

• Getting out of bad situations
• Honoring women
• Addressing the question "How far can you go and still not sin?"
• Steady dating
• Dating before 16

There's a fun "guy-girl" relationship quiz near the end of the book as well as some additional "bad" pick-up lines as well.

You can check out more great advice and resources from John HERE!!

The following video is Elder Jeffrey R. Holland's amazing counsel, originally intended for the young men, but still applicable to young women.

We have such an amazing responsibility to keep ourselves worthy as well as conduct ourselves in such a way that young men will do the same.

Please share it with your friends.
Elder Holland has a pretty insightful way of getting to the root of sensitive issues so that friends who may not understand your choices might get a better glimpse.

Car Maintenance

It's never too early to start thinking about how to care for and repair your vehicle.

Thanks to Brother Anderson for better acquainting us with what's under the hood of our cars and for generously donating both his time and truck to hone our skills.

 Our first activity was to see if we could recognize and name some of the tools we should be familiar with.

Next, we got a lesson on some of the car parts we should be aware of and what they do.

The handout can be viewed or downloaded in pdf format HERE!

Even Bishop Byron stopped by to share his expertise.

The real action, however, was checking our tire air pressure, trying our hand at changing the engine oil and the air filter, and having a little silly fun.
