Relief Society Birthday Dinner

I am the Relief Society activities chair person in our ward and so I have the opportunity to plan our get togethers.  The last activity we had was the Relief Society birthday dinner, which turned out to be such a great night.  I got some ideas off of Pinterest and then added my own twists.  Our theme was "Learning and Growing Together."  I planted wheat grass in little buckets to be used as our centerpieces.  I tried once and failed!  My wheat didn't really sprout and I think it's because it was really old.  The second attempt worked great and it was amazing to see just how fast the wheat grew!  I then made little bags of wheat grass with a handout for all of the ladies to take home to grow their own wheat grass just in time for Easter!
Day 1
 
Day 4


Day 6


Day 8- This was at the activity.  Taylor made the cute little signs for me to be able to stick in the grass.  It was the perfect finishing touch!
 We let some of the ladies take the buckets home after our dinner but I still ended up with two and have just been letting them grow.  I think they are a perfect addition to the rest of our Easter/Spring decor!:)

That is such a great idea! I love it for Easter and for the centerpieces! You have such great ideas for everything. I need to take notes on all your kid crafts/activities too!
