Let's start at the very beginning...or how about the end?

I can't believe summer is over...(and for a mom to say that, it went by pretty darn fast:). Since I have missed blogging most of the summer, here is the end of it with who else but the darling YW (16 Beehives)! One of the activities they planned in January was to finish up the summer with a luau. We had every girl there and we all had such a fun time.
Sister Snow is from Hawaii and taught us to hula! She even accompanied us on the ukelele!

The girls put all of the moves and the song together and went to town!

Sister Snow brought lava-lava-type wraps they were all able to try on and dance in. The girls are so fun to be around and they always lift us as their leaders so much!
Of course we leaders have to have the "waist-up-only" picture! (We had some pretty good hip action on the "washing-machine-type hula move though:)
My goal is to get us to Hawaii for our 20th Wedding Anniversary here in a few years so I will know simple things like: if you are married, you wear the flower on your left side and if single, wear it on your right! What a fun night along with many others this summer with the YW!

Looks like it was a hit! How fun - and SO many girls. Hawaiian dancing - can't beat it.
