Family Home Evening

Lately we have been trying to do FHE every Monday. So far we have been doing pretty good. We start off with a song that Emjae sings in Nursery and have opening prayer then go into a short lesson. We finish with another song and then kneel to have closing and family prayer.
Most of the time our songs consist of either Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Monkeys Jumping on the Bed, Monkeys Swinging in a Tree, Popcorn Popping, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and we are trying to introduce Hinges, and Book of Mormon Stories. Because of this, Julie will come running up to any grown person with her pointer and middle fingers together and start trying to make noises so you will start singing Itsy Bitsy Spider. She has most of the hand motions down. If she doesn't do that one she has one finger in the air swinging it side to side for Monkeys Swinging in the Tree and she's good with those motions too :)
Emjae now sees every Church building, even ones that aren't LDS and calls them Temples. At least she has the concept down.
We are enjoying our mini lessons and FHE. This last Monday however we didn't have a lesson. We made BROWNIES!!!!! YUM!!!!
Emjae did most of the mixing,

Julie helped spray the pan

and Julie ate most of the left over batter.


Emjae didn't want anything to do with the left over batter so James decided to put some on her arm which she tried to wipe off on my arm.

Little sneaky girl :)

This was after she tried to wipe it on me and she is laughing.
