Family Home Evening

My husband and I usually have FHE after the kids go down, because it's just easier. We figured that we'd get the boys involved when they are a little older. There have been a few things that have happened recently that really got me thinking. A couple of my friends have posted their experiences with their little ones on their blogs, and it really sounded like fun! They had/have great ideas that totally involve the kids. Another thing was when my family was here for the boys' birthdays. My oldest neice looked at our little chart and said something about Leki & Enos' names not on it. Again, got me thinking. The other night I thought of a few different things we could do to include the boys in our FHE, and tonight was the first "trial run." It was a BLAST!! We did a "Look for Lehi" game from an FHE book I have (thanks Mom), and Leki totally loved it! He kept saying "where's Hee-lie?"

(sorry this is sideways! Hopefully you guys can still tell what is happening...)

Anyway, we're so happy that we decided to involve our children. Thanks to those of you who inspired us along the way!!
