Hi-ho, Hi-ho, it's on a hike we go...
We will be hiking Squaw Peak on
January 9th
Meet at the church at 7am
Husbands and kids are welcome
(however, if children decide to turn around they will need to be accompanied by a parent- parents are responsible for children's saftey on the hike).
There are flush toilets and picnic ramadas (first come, first served on the ramadas- but there are many).
The hike can take anywhere from 1-2.5 hours, depending on the individual. This will make it difficult to stay together as an entire group, but we need to stay in small groups so no one is left alone.
Individuals will be responsible to bring the following for themselves and their families:
water
comfortable shoes (not brand new hiking boots- this is not the time to break them in)
sunscreen
snacks
hat
sunglasses
simple first aid kit
trekking poles (for those with knee problems, these may prove very helpful)

Dashing through December
December 7th
Lunch Bunch/Mommy and me
Come play with your food...or eat while the kids are playing...or play while the kids are eating...it's all up to you.
The food starts flying at 11:00 am at Carl's Jr.
December 10th
6:30 pm
This month's Relief Society activity is one you will definitely not want to miss. We will be having a progressive dinner that will make Santa (and the Priesthood) jealous.
We'll get our appetites going with appetizers at Zanette Jacobson's, have the main course at Kathy Gallagher's, and satisfy our sweet teeth with dessert AND a cookie exchange at Chris Ortega's. Along the way we will be spiritually fed as well with a Gospel thought at each stop.
If you would like to participate in the cookie exchange, all you need to do is bake, buy, or coerce your visiting teachers into making one dozen cookies to swap.
Please join us...the more the merrier!

Relief Society Meeting 7:00PM
Cooking and Crafting
Come fire up your cooking skills with Chris.
Or update your purse-onality with Kellyn
Zannette.
Rag Bags:
Materials Needed: 1 yard of each of the following…
Main Outer Fabric: Cotton works best. My suggestion is to use 4 different fabric designs. In this case, you would need ¼ yard of each. You could also do 2 different fabrics and use ½ yard of each.
Middle Fabric: I use plain flannel, but you could also use batting. Flannel will give your bag more color.
Inside Fabric: I like to use a simple solid color, but you may use whatever works best for you.
Preparation: Due to the lack of time, if you have the materials and are able, it is suggested that you cut and prepare the fabric prior to Enrichment. This will leave you plenty of time to sew the bag together. This bag has three layers, sewn in individual squares that are then sewn together to create your bag.
Cutting instructions for Main Outer Fabric:
1.) Cut out eight 8” squares (8”x8”). If you have 4 different designs, you will need to cut two 8” squares from each design. If you choose to do 2 designs, you will have four 8” squares from each.
2.) Cut out six 8”x6” rectangles. If you have 4 different designs, you will need to cut two 8”x6” pieces from 3 of your designs. If you choose to do 2 designs, you will have three 8”x6” pieces from each.
3.) From your remaining fabric, you will need to cut two 8”x12” pieces for your inside pockets.
4.) From your remaining fabric you will also need to cut a 3” piece, 27”-30” long. This is for the strap. I like to split this up with the remaining fabric pieces I have left. See strap in picture.
Cutting instructions for Middle Fabric/Batting:
1.) Cut out eight 8” squares (8”x8”). If using batting, make your
squares 6”.
2.) Cut out six 8”x6” rectangles. If you’re using batting, make the rectangles 6”x4”.
3.) Cut your 3” strap piece exactly how you cut the main fabric.
Cutting instructions for Inside Fabric:
1.) Cut out eight 8” squares (8”x8”).
2.) Cut out six 8”x6” rectangles.
3.) Cut your 3” strap piece exactly how you cut the main and middle fabric.
Feel free to call me if you have any questions while preparing your fabric for enrichment. Kellyn Carpenter 480-332-5485
