FHE Ideas

How many of you are tired of trying to come up with last minute FHE ideas? Are you tired of all the FHE helps out there being to advanced for your young children? I have an idea!

I have been brewing with this idea for over a year now and I am now trying to enforce it. I want to get together with a group of girls, preferrably mom's with children around the same age as mine (1 and 3) every few weeks and plan FHE ideas for the month.

Here is how it will work (for a group of 4 girls, if there is more, then we would meet less often)

Each mom will create one FHE Lesson plan for the month. That person will gather all the needed crafty items if needed for 4 people, or just prepare a lesson plan type outline. We will then get together and swap. You would then have 4 lessons from 4 different girls and your FHE will be planned for an entire month.

Does that make sense? It is an idea that could use some work, but I think it will be an awesome idea if we could get it going. If there are those wanting to do it but have older children, that would work too, we could just adjust for age differences.

Any ideas, tips, comments?

Let me know if you wanna join me in the endeavor!

So much to catch up on, so little time!

A few weeks ago we had a FUN FHE. We went to this place called The Spring Creek Miniature golf course in Providence. It was only $2.50/person because children 3 and under are free. The person that wins also gets a free game, so every time you go, you get in pretty dirt cheap! We invited some friends to go.

The kids didn't really care about the golfing part. In fact they tried to play in the water constantly and Cayten lost his treasured "blue" ball to the dreaded water. This is a picture of them hitting the ball into the trees. We had such a blast and can't wait to do it again.

Cris and I really enjoy having friends over for games. We try to have someone over every week to play, we are sort of addicted but it is so much fun and so much better than sitting in front of a tv. Here is a picture of the kids one night during game playing, they wanted to watch a movie.

Last week on the Fourth of July we went to Cris's families house in South Ogden. We went on a hike on Friday afternoon/night. It is a beautiful hike that leads up to a beautiful waterfall.

We ran into this friend on the hike, he was as big as Cris's dad's hand.

This is only the TOP of the waterfall

And this is the view from the hike, so BEAUTIFUL! ! !

We also did fireworks on July 4th. It was so much fun! It was Cayten's first time doing fireworks and he had such a blast. He was so much fun to watch.

Last but not least, Cris came home with these on Thursday. Totally surprised me and melted my heart. I don't think he has given me flowers for 2 years or so!
