Sweet-Teen Birthday Party Operation Beautiful Style! :0)

Last night, I held a “Sweet Teen” Birthday Party for my high school girls at church!  We had a great time!

There was a twist to the evening and that’s why I’m blogging about it.  Inside each gift bag was an Operation Beautiful book and a pad of sticky notes to get them started! Heather gave me the idea!  Thanks, Heather!

I also wrote each girl a personalized note as well as two Operation Beautiful sticky notes to keep inside the front of their books.

My girls!

We started off the night by singing Happy Birthday, then we dug in! :0)

After we finished eating, I gave each girl a sticky note with a special message on it.  All of the messages were taken from the Operation Beautiful website. I could hear them whispering….”What’s Operation Beautiful?”   I then read Caitlyn’s story from the intro to her book to the girls.  The LOVED the concept!!  After reading her story, I gave them all their gifts!

Needless to say, it was a huge success!  They started immediately writing notes!
