Halloween!

We were pretty festive for Halloween in the 206 ward. On October 26, the FHE hosted a ward pumpkin carving not-contest. Here we have Andres Orellana holding his "Pumpkin King" pumpkin. That was probably the best one, but I shouldn't judge since I didn't see them all.

Some ward members also attended the Barn Dance on October 31. Apparently over 1000 Stake members attended. If only we'd had that kind of attendance at Stake Conference!

On October 12, the Ferguson's had a "Bread and Music" FHE. Many of you came and watched Somber Party play an intimate house show. In the photo are ward members Mark Garbett (keys), Brandon Robbins (guitar), Caitlin Watson (singing), and former ward member Nathan Robbins (singing).

Farewell to Summer BBQ

Now, I'm sorry to say that this activity, held on August 22 at Jolley's Ranch in Hobble Creek Canyon, seemed to be more well attended by the 189 ward than the 206th ward. However, we arrived late and still were blessed to eat tasty meat cooked by Bishop Mackay, corn on the cob, and orange-creme popsicles. Delicious.

Enrichment! I mean, Relief Society Meetings!


For those of you ladies who think you are "too busy" to go to the newly named "Relief Society Meetings" (fomerly "enrichment"), you are missing out. Heather Theodore and her committee have planned some lovely activities over the past few months, including salsa making with Sister Mackay, Sewing Group, Knitting Circle, and... soon to be coming... PIE NIGHT. Look for more photos in coming weeks!

Ward Summer Party


Way back on July 18, we had a combined 189/206 ward activity at Jordanelle Reservoir. For those of you who didn't attend, you missed out enjoying some of the best activities summer in Utah has to offer: free boating, swimming, crowding on tiny "beaches" together, and eating ward-cooked BBQ.
