Chickens or Eagles?

We learned today that we are meant to make a difference.  We should soar like an eagle!


We learned about Paul from the scriptures today for Family Home Evening.  We learned how just one person can make a big difference.


This week we had some car trouble but we are thankful not to have broken down on the side of the road and feel very blessed that Ray was able to fix the car himself.  We also are pleased to have gotten the Christmas decorations all put up in the attic.


Have a great week!

New Years post!


Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

 

Tonight for FHE we decided to set some new goals and we reviewed some old goals that we feel we are doing well on.

 

Family goals:

Work on doing better on our daily scripture study and daily morning prayer

Continue to work on having weekly FHE and continue with out daily evening prayers

 

Personal goals:

Stella and Mom decided to set a goal to work on Personal Progress each day for 30 minutes, Stella also has set a goal of working on home work right when getting home each day instead of playing ipad games

Cambria and Mom have set a goal to go over Cambria’s homework each day after school for 15 minutes

Kyle and Mom have set a goal to read together each day for 15 minutes – he has decided to give up 15 minutes of his play time to make this happen

 

We had a great visit with Allison’s sister Amber, nieces Natasha and Tatyana and great-niece Zoe over the holiday.  It was a full house but as Cambria says, “it was a BLAST”.

 

It’s really, really cold today.  Started the day at 14 degrees, yikes!

 

Stella would like everyone to know we had an “owlsome” Christmas!
