Bones About It

Halloween is coming, we had to celebrate.
We encouraged everyone to come dressed in their costumes.
We had some crazy sweet decorations
We had a treat table (chips, dips, spooky drinks)
We dipped caramel apples
We played Halloween games
We ate candy
And gave out skeleton trophies!

Look at that beauty!

One of our leaders had some flimsy skeletons (we're talking Dollar tree here) that she got crafty on. She got out her glue gun, gunned the joints of the skeleton so that they stood in different positions, mounted them on some cardboard, and spray painted them gold. Everyone wanted one.

Integrity Progressive Dinner

You all know how a progressive dinner works....one piece of a meal is served at each house. That's what we went off of here except  at each house our girls were served some thoughts on integrity too.
We assigned each leader a part of the meal. We split ours up like this:
-Appetizers
-Salads
-Breads
-Main course
-Warm drinks
-Dessert
We started at the church for opening exercises then walked from house to house. At each house the leader shared with everyone some food, and then a quick thought about a person who they thought exemplified Integrity. It was really neat to hear all the stories that our leaders came up with. We heard about mothers, brothers, George Washington, visiting teachers, and even stories about children from elementary school.
