Time to Blossom program for girls

(Some news from our house: Tara went to her first Young Adult conference. She and Shelby Havens drove to Wilmington Saturday morning. Zac is gone to scout camp with the Cary 1st ward, to attend Rampage for a week.

Tara and her boyfriend Andrew have begun cooking together almost every night. He loves to cook exotic foods with unusual ingredients, that are about a million calories. Friday night they made a cheese sauce that had 2 pounds of cheese in it, and pasta, and then they made some eggnog icecream.)




I'm so proud of my sister, Carla Jorgensen. She and her friend Debbie Forrest organized and put on their first big conference for LDS girls, age 12-16.

From the website:

"We know young women are ready and eager to learn and grow, but since EFY starts at 14 we saw a need for something that started a little younger and was for girls only (boys can be a distraction). We will be teaching skills and insights geared for girls 12-16."

Two hundred and fifty girls attended their first conference in Mesa, Arizona June 14-18, 2010. John Bytheway was just one of the well-known speakers.

The women are already planning for next year, and hoping to expand into other states. Check out the website:
