The program...

We absolutely LOVE this quote...YW, please read it...and read it often...you can find it on pg 75 of your personal progress book...

Here's Ms. Elenoa Fusitua...She's a Sr. in high school, has a killer spike, is known as "Queen Mei", makes the best musubi's & has completed all the requirements to earn her

YW RECOGNITION!!!...

For anyone that has received this prestigious award will know very well this is no easy task by any means...You go girl!!! We are all so proud of you!

And what a great theme! Young Women Around the world...

YWIE is also a great opportunity to introduce new YW to the program...Lani Pututau is new a member of the Beehive class...here she is with her mom Ngatu in their beautiful tradition Tongan wear....

Each YW chose a different country to display...Here's Mexico..great pics, great facts & great nachos!

They all did a terrific Job on their displays...

Each YW researched facts & history about each country...we where happy to see our native Tonga =)...

Here's the Hawaii display.....she had an all time favorite candy of almost any polynesian....chocolate covered macadamian nuts...

But you've got to act FAST or this is what you'll find with any box of these heavenly pieces of pure goodness...I was definately too slow...

Handmade artifacts....very nice!

Here's Ka...her groups kimono's & display were a hit!

Here are the three beauties together...great job girls!!

The YW also had the option if they wanted to bring a dish from their country...I just had to try them ALL.....yumm!!

One thing I love when you go to our stake functions is how respectful our youth are...here are the YW serving all their guests (parents, family members & leaders) before they ate...

Heamoni (who's their YW president) always has such nice decor...and even better food =)

Voni & Ofo taking a break for a quick pic...

Here's a group shot of all the girls and their YW leaders...aren't they a big group?...in fact, one of the biggest in our stake...and all so lovely at that!!
