Lets just be honest, the best family nights are the ones when they A( all get along and B( listen. Last night we had a double success. To top it all off the cousins came to celebrate with us.
We celebrated back to school with a kid friendly dinner, and then topped it off with a family home evening were we introduced our families them for the year. I stole borrowed an idea from the fabulous NieNie and made “Be Prepared” our theme for the year.
We talked about being physically and spiritually prepared. We wrote a poster of our ideas on how to work on ways to be prepared.
Then we wrote our goals, hopes and dreams for the year on a balloon,
We saved the best for last and had homemade Blizzards for desert. (Can you believe the cousins didn’t know what a Blizzard was ;0) They are a staple in our family)

I love this!!! We borrowed the theme from Stephanie (nienie) too! I was in Utah visiting my family when we heard about her crash (her brother is married to my bff and I have known her since she was 11). It was awful, but so amazing to see how people came together. I check in here every so often to see how your little one is…but loved the FHE post so much, I had to comment. What a beautiful family.
BEAUTIFUL pictures!!
Wasn’t it so great to do that? And to teach the children compassion in the process.
