2011 State Convention/Mother of Year Luncheon

UP with Motherhood!

Our Utah Association State Convention and Mother of the Year Luncheon was held on February 5, 2011. It was a very UPLIFTING and wonderful event that RAISED our spirits and ELEVATED our determination to be better mothers and grandmothers. Those in charge of the event proved they could RISE to the occasion and make everything just perfect from the decorations to the speakers. It was held at the Maddox Lodge in Perry, Utah which meant that our taste buds were also taken to new HEIGHTS!
