Cookie Tradition

We kind of made our sugar cookies a little late this year (late for me is a couple days before Halloween). We cut out witches, pumpkins, cats, Frankenstein, bats, and ghosts. I chose a lovely shade of purple and of course our Halloween sprinkles. I finally found an awesome cookie frosting that has a great flavor and hardens up so you can stack your cookies. Yum for our family!

My little moments

We have to be careful to what we watch because he freaks out and gets scared very easily. Clay was watching the new show V and Brayden was downstairs with him playing with his new cars. I tell him that he needs to come to bed. He grabs my leg and holds on tight all the way up the stairs and tells me he is scared. Then I can't leave his side when he uses the restroom. I tuck him in and he covers his head with the blankets. I have to burrow his face out so he can breathe. That is what you see above. Lyndee is such a little cutie! She loves the color pink.

These are our new ones. They are super sweet. This dude below waited for a while to give candy to Brayden. This guy decorates his foyer. It was all old timey with several skeletons sitting around playing poker. On the table, all the candy was there. The kids had to pick out what they wanted. He built it all.

Iron Rod Short FHE lesson

Image
I like FHE's when they are short and sweet. I have the attention span of a gnat during the summer. I loved the VT message this month and how there was a simple FHE activity. I went on the Friend and found more about Lehi's Dream. Here is the link . I discussed the pictures with my kids in small kid terms and then we did the activity from the visiting teaching message this month. The kids loved it and I think that they really grasped it--the lesson.    I have found that Monday evenings do not work for me but Sunday's instead. We are already in the church mindset. Why not continue the spirit through to the evening? Thought I would share....
