It's Fun to Clean Up Toys!

Kaleb can make Isaac laugh better than anyone else. Isaac must have thought it was so funny to see Kaleb actually putting toys into the toy box without being told! HA! He was laughing harder when this "game" started, but my camera wasn't cooperating so I missed the better laughs!

Krazy Coupon Lady Day 3

Family Night Lesson

For Family Home Evening last week, we did a lesson about tithing. Two Saturdays ago, Kaleb and Cambree had earned some money helping Grandpa, so Cory told them that they should pay tithing on it. Kaleb was not too keen on the idea of giving up his money, so we decided to use that for our FHE topic last Monday.



It says, "Food for Thought: You're not just giving the Lord 10 percent, He is giving you 90 percent."

I remembered this "Mormon Ad" so I called Cory at school and asked him to bring home a big piece of paper. I took our round pizza pan and traced two big circles and then made some crust on them. Then I brought the kids into the kitchen and asked them if they would use the markers and make 2 pizzas while I finished cooking dinner.

Of course they kept asking me why they were drawing pizzas, but I just told them it was for Family Night. For the lesson, I cut the pizzas into 10 pieces and then asked them if they would be willing to share their pizza with Heavenly Father. When they said "Yes," then I told them that all he wanted was just 1 piece and he wanted them to keep 9. Cambree said, "But I don't want to keep all this pizza, I want to share more of it." I got all teary eyed when she said that! I told her how proud I was of her. We tried to keep it as simple as possible and related it to 10 pennies, 10 dimes, etc. I feel like it went really well. Of course it was hard for them to get past Heavenly Father eating pizza, but I think they got the jist of it. ;)

The Boy Next Door

Cambree has a little friend that lives next door. His name is Royce. Cambree is constantly asking if she can go to his house. His Mom told me that he asks her if he can come to our house. But so far, it's never been quite the right time. Either, we are getting ready to go somewhere, or the weather's really cold and rainy, so they can't play outside. Anyway, Royce and Cambree have figured out a way. Twice now they have met in the middle of the hay field between our two houses. When I went outside to check on her the other day, this is what I found:




It was so cute I had to run inside to get my camera. I tried to zoom in as much as I could and they don't even know I took the pictures. She told me later that she and Royce had tasted the hay leaves. I wish the weather would warm up so these two can finally get together to play!
