A couple of weeks ago I was in charge of our Young Women activity for my Mia Maids (ages 14 and 15) and I decided we were going to make temples out of sugar cubes. I found the idea online somewhere, probably sugardoodle.net, which is an amazing site for activity ideas.
I had the HARDEST time finding sugar cubes. I mean, really, no one uses sugar cubes anymore because the sweeteners come in those little packages now. I went to three different stores and FINALLY found them. 200 count for about a $1.50. Deal.
Also, I chose to use the yellow/clear gummy bears for our Angel Moronis. That was my own idea. I did not find that on the internet. Just wanted to throw that out there...
There is a gummy bear couple inside getting sealed for time and all eternity. These girls crack me up.
They totally look like little temples! Don't they?
I put this here for comparison. This is the temple that Ander and I were married in.
My girls! Naomi, Jordan, Brittany, and Mary. Becky is in the back but she refuses to be in any of my pictures. Look at those beautiful ladies! I love them so much.
Jordan. As always, the peace sign. She was the one that put the gummy bear couple inside her temple.
Mary told me that after this activity, she knows she is not an architect.
There's Becky!! All the way in the back! Apparently she had no clue I was taking a picture.
Naomi. Reminds me of me when I was this age.
This activity turned out great. All the girls enjoyed themselves, while getting to eat sugar cubes and gummy bears. I thought all of their temples were darling.
I consider myself so incredibly lucky to be able to spend my Tuesday nights with these lovely sisters. They have brought so much joy to my life in the past year. I hope I stay in Young Women's for a while.
