FHE.

i love family home evening. as of late we have been very good about it. and naturally we have felt the spirit more in our home and it makes me so happy. i love that it's time set aside for gospel inspiration and time together. we both take turns planning and i love it when it's Alex's turn, not that i don't like planning, it's just his is always so good!

on monday night we re-watched a conference talk by Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin, Come What May, and Love it.  it was very fitting for us to hear and reminded me that everything has a purpose and that we should enjoy it while we go through it. i feel very blessed. Alex and i have had some very exciting things happen to us lately and i would be ungrateful if i didn't express my appreciation. Heavenly father truly has a plan for everything and it works! i am so grateful for the inspiration our church leaders have been given to encourage family home evening. i know that it works and unites our family. i hope we can keep at it and continue it on when we do have a bigger family as well. i love the gospel so much. just thought i'd share!

have a good day!
after we shared 3 yummy cookies and Farr's ice cream from Cuttlers. i love cookies.

Good on you guys! I loved that talk too. We've listened to it a couple times since he gave it too. That's awesome you guys are getting into the habit now so it'll be easier when your family IS bigger because it'll be a normal thing and not something you have to introduce then.
My family hardly ever did it when I was growing up so when my mom did try, none of us cooperated. Not to mention the fact that the activity was ALWAYS yard work! lol!
