Wow!

When we were called as the new Herndon Ward Relief Society presidency, we had one reaction: WOW!  

WOW that we get to be part of the leadership of a Relief Society full of smart, sassy women who inspire us at every turn. 

WOW that we get to work under the wise, gentle tutelage of Patricia M. 

WOW that we all get to be here together in Herndon Ward to work, learn and grow together.

Wow, wow, and wow!  

We love our ward.  We love the power of the gospel in our lives. And we love learning from each other, becoming better friends and serving each other.

We also love staying in touch.  

What better way to do that than through our own blog?  

So, welcome to our blog and thank you to our blogging queen Julia S. who is our new RS IT Specialist.  (How awesome is it that we have our own IT specialist in Relief Society?  Watch out Elders and High Priests, we're moving out way ahead of you in the world of high tech...)
My favorite quote of the week was Julia's facebook status that said:  "Nothing screams "NERD" like getting called as the RS IT Specialist."  Love that!  Welcome aboard Nerd Julia!

Our blog idea emerged after hearing comments about wanting "more" of one thing or another -- more dinner ideas and menu planning tips after the Food Network activity or more tips after the parenting panel. We thought it would be a fun idea to create a place for more of the good stuff that many of us want.  And the best part is you don't have to go anywhere, make or buy anything or even get out of your pajamas to check in with us.  It doesn't get much better than that now does it?
So stay tuned as we try to spin out useful, fresh and fun information about what's happening in Relief Society and whatever else tickles our fancy!
