Fiesta Preparations - Keepers

This past winter we had to cancel a few Keepers meetings because of snow and sickness. We had a "catch-up" meeting at the Wagner house.  Our badge ceremony this year is going to be Mexican themed so we prepared a Mexican meal and worked on the banquet decorations.

We started the meeting by learning to make tissue paper flowers.

 Elainah chose six different colors of tissue paper so her flower was bright and cheery!! :)



A few of the finished flowers...they will be used for decoration at our banquet in May.

 There are four little guys that usually come with their sisters to the meetings. 
This was just a cute little moment of them playing with a train set :)

 We also made little piñatas out of toilet paper tubes...





Then we all moved to the kitchen where we prepared a Mexican meal.

 Sis. Annette divided us all into groups to work on different parts of the meal.
Joanna, Hope, and Bethany were in charge of making a delicious Pineapple drink.

 Zoe, Abigail N., and I made salsa and guacamole while Anna, Faith, and Elainah fried tortilla chips.

 Elisabeth and Joy


It was a really fun meeting and we all enjoyed learning to make the different Mexican dishes!
