In commemoration of the new Young Women's value of virtue, our stake planned a "virtue hike" and presentation for yesterday morning. All women in the stake were invited, although it ended up being mostly mothers and daughters (and young women leaders :)) I was so glad we did this- there was a mile hike up pretty steep trails to this viewpoint, where we all gathered for a talk by the stake president and a commitment by each of us to live with virtue. We then flew banners and shouted "Return to Virtue" over the valley. It was a beautiful day, and seeing all those young women willing to get up early and drag themselves up the mountain was an inspiring thing. You can't really tell from the pictures how many people were there, but we were not a small crowd. Mom and I walked back down the mountain after this, but Rebekah went on and completed a 5 mile hike in preparation for girl's camp this summer. She was a little worn out when she got home.

What a special day. I loved it - a little sore the next day though!
