On Friday, February 11th, the girls hosted their 2nd annual Valentines Dinner party and mentor appreciation. They invited the ladies who had helped them in their many activities this year. Nineteen girls and eight ladies gathered for a feast of spaghetti and meatballs, salad, dessert and Ms. Sally's famous punch. The tables looked beautiful, as the girls had worked hard making place cards, centerpieces and decorations. Ms. Lu provided all the paper goods and candy favors, Ms. Carol brought a yummy red jello salad and more favors, Ms. Judy the bread, and Ms Mary Ann brought the delicious cupcakes. Ms. Caitlin even folded all the red napkins into hearts!
After a fun game on their knowledge of etiquette, they all learned the proper way to set a table. Manners were also discussed, with lots of laughs on what was proper and what was not. Candles and soft piano music (cd) really set the mood. The day ended with listening to the Fathers Love Letter a collection of over 50 bible verses telling of God's great love for us.

It was truly a day filled with love.
