A new ward....time to party

We are just getting used to our new ward boundaries. We had to say goodbye to all our friends on the west side of Olathe. It was so sad...especially because we will miss seeing the Terrys every Sunday.  But, we gained a square mile of members right next to where we live! And they have tons of awesome families and loads of kids and teenagers. We desperately needed the boost in our youth program!

Another fun perk is the Tiafau family. They are from Samoa and they are super fun. They worked so hard putting together a Luau for our whole ward. Let me tell you, it was clear that we had best step up and wear all the floral cloth we could find. We made hair clips out of the flowers we used to use as a centerpiece in the play kitchen. I found some leafy fabric at Hobby Lobby and we tied them around our waists. 


Ethan ordered Polynesian tattoo sleeves on Amazon. He was super into it.


Look at that spread! And don't even get me started on the chicken. It was legendary.



Hey, Courtney!


Tami and Julia


Bishop and the boys


Mark and the girls perform the "Lava Song"!


There was lots of awesome dancing...









We especially loved the Bishop's "resortwear".


But really, everybody looked great!



It was a fun night and we ended it with everyone pitching in to clean up and a bit of Electric Slide!
