and especially the Christmas Season. Sometimes I still feel like a little kid when it comes to Christmas. I love the snow, the lights, being with family and friends, and giving and receiving gifts. These are all wonderful reasons to enjoy the season but I hope we can all remember the real reason we celebrate Christmas, the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. He gave us the greatest gift of all; the way back to our Heavenly Father. Hopefully we will all be able to take some time this Christmas season to remember our Savior and the many things he has done for us.
There are some great activities coming up the next couple of weeks to help you enjoy the season with your ward family.

Retreat Recap
It's been a while since the retreat, but here's the blog to remind you of good times and some of the blessings we've been given from our Heavenly Father.
We were blessed to have our annual retreat up in Midway this year. The food was delicious, the message inspiring, and the talent show entertaining. Thank you so much to Kristen, April, and the many others who helped plan and prepare to make the retreat a success.
We had Cafe Río style pork salad for dinner. (Click on the "Recipes of Liberty Ward" link on the left to see the recipes.) Rachel made flan, tres leche, and rice pudding for dessert (if you'd like to know how to make those you'll have to talk to Rachel). I ate so much I felt I could barely walk, I don't think I was the only one.
April gave us a spiritual message about remembering our divine nature, prioritizing and creating. We are daughters of Heavenly Father, there is power in remembering that and using that knowledge to help us feel of his love for us. We learned that the Young Women theme and the Relief Society theme are based upon the same values. How amazing that the inspired Young Women theme prepares us to become women of Relief Society and in turn the Relief Society theme reminds us of the values which provide a solid foundation for our lives. We also watched a video clip of a talk by Pres. Uchtdorf, check out the link under "Inspiring Videos."
Speaking of creating, the sisters of our ward are amazing! Several sisters displayed their talents; sewing, scrapbooking, woodworking, card making, gardening, the list could go on and on. I'm sure there were many more talents that were not displayed that evening. The talent show was a mixture of seriousness and fun. It was wonderful to be uplifted by the sisters of the Liberty Ward.
Here's some photos and a video from the talent show. Enjoy!
Thanks to all who attended, you are the ones who made the retreat a success!

happy new year....
Happy 2010!
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. It's a new year with lots of great things planned, so stay tuned to see what's coming up.
I thought it might be fun to post sisters birthdays on here. So here they are for the month of January:
Jan 5th- Robin Nielson
Jan 14th- Maurine McLean
Jan 16th- Tonia Bowman
Happy Birthday ladies!
Also, a little thought:
I loved Elder Holland's article in this month's Ensign "The Best is Yet to Be", about looking forward to the future and not dwelling on the past.
He says, "As a new year begins and we try to benefit from a prior view of what has gone before, I plead with you not to dwell on days now gone nor to yearn vainly for yesterdays, however good those yesterdays may have been. The past is to be learned from but not lived in. We look back to claim the embers from glowing experiences but not the ashes. And when we have learned what we need to learn and have brought with us the best that we have experienced, then we look ahead and remember that faith is always pointed toward the future.
Love it.
Love,
Aubrey
