Snow...Snow... Snow

We are getting more snow today.. We need it and the kids love it. I myself am ready for spring but I know it is in due time...till then enjoy every minute. So we have been! Our kids seem to be the highlight of our lives. They crack us up and make us laugh daily. How much joy they bring is crazy in between all the naughty moments. Seem so strange but any parent know the nasty moments can't even compare to each of the great!

We just had a recent photo shoot. I love taking pictures and here are a few that I loved. There were many to choose from and let me tell you kids can come up with some fun expressions.

May we all have a better week and find a way to serve more!!

They were singing for me.

Dress Up.....

Sydnee loves to dress up. She found a slip at D.I. and thinks it is a dress. It makes her happy and look how beautiful she is!! Chase of course has to get in on the action.....so check out his hat selections. We love their energy and laugh daily with them.....Oh... the joys of life!

Pony Ride

This weekend some friend invited the children to come and ride Sierra's new pony. Of course my kids were all about it. They had so much fun. Now Sydnee wants one. One day maybe.....

Look how much fun they had......

FHE........

New years Resolution.... Do better at FHE.....what a task that is with two little children. I don't think it is ever easy, but I know I must do better. So this is our start and I thought I would share. My sister Julie told me about this. I believe it came out of the ensign this last year. This is our twist. We made some boxes and filled each one. One has a game, one has a lesson or gospel teaching method, and the last has songs to sing. I really thought the kids would enjoy it and let me tell you it was a hit. In fact we do it every day. I am so excited that they love it. I will do it every day. I love the gospel and will take every minute to teach my children. It is even more fun when they are excited.

Activity:
Read a story for the Friend
Who is the prophet
How can we share with other
How can you help your mom and Dad
Read a scripture
Talk about a picture in the Friend
Tell a scripture story
The list can go on and on

Songs:
Primary songs

Games:
Play with Chase favorite toy
Play Hide and seek
Read a story
Play game board
( Of course this is age appropriate for my kids, but you can do what ever)

Place a slip of paper with activities, games, and songs in their boxes. Let the kids draw one from each box. Do the activity, song, game and FHE is done. Already planned and no excuse for not doing it.

Snacks: Can't forget a snack

May we all do better at teaching our children and gather them together for FHE.

Check it out!!!
