For our awards night we decided to go with a Snow White theme. We thought that this theme would give us 2 different aspects we could focus on: inner beauty and the importance of hard work. We had 2 amazing sisters give talks on these two subjects and then the bishop came and brought them together. We handed out awards for completing a years worth of goals, for memorizing all the Articles of Faith, and also if they completed reading the Book of Mormon on their own.
Decorations: we had a lot of paper apples and plastic gems as well as flower streamers and shiny/glittery pieces.
Food: All the food had Snow White themed names: The Queen's Poisoned Punch, Sweet as Snow White Sugar Cookies, Water from the Magic Well, Prince Charming's Roll Up Sandwiches, Dwarf's sized Pulled Pork Sandwiches, Rainbow Fruit Kabobs from the Forest Animals
Give Away: We had a small hand mirror (awesome find at the dollar store) for each of the girls with the poem I wrote attached.
We had this poem on the invitations we handed out, on the program and on the mirrors:

Games: We had 4 different "game" stations
1) Bowling for Dwarfs
2) Magic Wishing Well
3) Dwarf Mine (bucket with sand in it and some gems to dig up)
4) Magic Mirror (the Shrek DVD has a magic mirror on it that we set up on a tv in a corner)
We had this poem on the invitations we handed out, on the program and on the mirrors:
Mirror mirror in my hand
Who is the fairest in the land?
My dearest one do you not know?
Hard work and righteous study have made her so…
The fairest of fair is not one alone,
But all with a heart holding a
Testimony that glows.
Thank you to my amazing sister who took all these pictures (Alisa Duenas Photography)
