Free items

Hi Everyone,

We have a TV and filing cabinet we are no longer in need of.  They are free to a good home, just please do not turn around and sell the items. 

The filing cabinet is a 2 drawer.  It is in good condition, other than a small rust spot on the top corner where drinks were left.

The TV is a 25 inch Awia.  It is in great condition. 

Call us if you are interested,
Jim and Carla Wandelt

Can anyone get this down for one of our Sunday meetings? It is so AMAZING...

Is anyone out there?

Hi!  We as a presidency are trying to figure out the best way to get the information out to all the Sisters in our ward.  We are wondering if anyone reads this?  If not, we are going to delete it and try to just stick to emails and Pinnacle Vista Peeps on Facebook.  Please contact me if you have an opinion about this and/or you view this blog:  wandeltmomx4@gmail.com
Thank you!

I love Antique Windows!

Hello Everyone!

I am a Huge fan of old windows and I got my hands on a few of them. I'm keeping a couple, but I'm selling the others (only because I need the money;')
So here's what I have... one white six pane window, two brown six pane windows and one brown single pane window. It's super easy to paint over and resand to antique if you want. I can show you or even help ya.

I just wanted to show you what I do with them. This one is hanging in my family room with pics and vinyl lettering.

I had this one laying on the floor while I was putting vinyl lettering on it and Makoa ran acrossed it and broke the glass..so mad!! But after calming down, I did this with it and I love it!

Let me know if your interested. I'm trying to get $40 for each window.

Dear Mom's of the Pinnacle Vista Young Women,

On Tuesday, November 15th at 7PM we are having our annual "Young Women's in Excellence" program. For this special evening, we would like either you or your spouse to take a few minutes to talk about the special gifts and talents that your daughter has been blessed with. The theme for this night is based on the new LDS media campaign "I Am A Mormon" which highlights the special and unique qualities of members of the church. All of our young women are special, and we know that as their mothers you know what is most special about them. Please write down a few sentences that you would like to share. Also, you could say something about an experience that your daughter had in the Personal Progress program that helped them develop a special quality or talent. On the night of Young Women's in Excellence, the young women will be sharing what is special about themselves, after each girl speaks either you or their father can share your thoughts about her. This will be a very special night. We appreciate your help. Please contact one of the Young Women's Presidency members if you have questions.

Thank you, Alisha Rose
