Blessings Mix – Thanksgiving Theme
Ruth G. shared this activity idea her girls did in November: “We did this for a Beehive activity the month of November for the girls…they were asked to prayerfully think of someone they could give their bags to.

A Pebble in your shoe
As our YW come in the room, I put a pebble in their shoe and a DumDum in their mouth and ask them to walk around the room before sitting down. After they are all seated, I ask them to tell me about their walk. Everyone of them said that the pebble hurt their foot, not ONE of them mentioned how sweet the DumDum is.
Pop Quiz
During my second year of nursing school, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I breezed through the questions until I read the last one: “What is the first name of the janitor who cleans the school?” Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times, but how could I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Before…
