LUAU!!

One of the "blessings" of being the Young Women president is spearheading the fundraiser for camp. This year, we decided to do it with the Young Men and have a luau and silent auction, which took place last Saturday night. It was SO MUCH WORK, so I am breathing a sigh of relief that it's over. Everyone I have talked to says they had a great time, (I was too stressed and crazy to notice), and we were glad for the support we got from the ward. I couldn't resist sharing a few of the pictures from the big night.

We have a wonderful family in our ward, the Fifitas, who helped with the Luau. We couldn't have done it without them. They actually roasted the pig in their backyard! You gotta have a picture of that! Hunter and Lily were fascinated with the pig. I was worried that they would think it was gross, but they still had pork for dinner!

One of the highlights of the night was having the Fifta men share a dance with us. It's called the haka, and it's a Maori dance with lots of stomping and chanting. After they did the haka, they had the men and boys get up on the stage and do the "white man's haka" with them. It was TOO funny. Our camera isn't the greatest, so the pictures of the dance are a little blurry, but but you get the idea. That's Hunter in the white on the right.

All in all, it was a very exciting night. The best part is, it's OVER!
