testimony of Christ

On Monday of this week, I decided to do a Family Home Evening lesson on "following the Prophet". So I got in my FHE files and decided to look online as well for any ideas. I went to one of my favorite LDS websites and looked up "Prophets". I came across a wonderful sound clip that I just had to share with everyone. It's the voice of Prophets bearing their personal testimonies of Christ put to music.

I was so touched and felt spiritually strengthened by their words! So take just a minute to listen and I'm sure your testimony will be strengthened as well.

music man

Charlie loves listening to music and dancing. He discovered Emma Grace's headset this past week and LOVES it. He goes crazy about listening to music!! I know, I know, I know....it's terrible to put earphones on my 14 month old. Don't tell the ENT! I make sure the volume is down low. Does that help? Anyway, the little guy would rather be listening to music or playing the Barbie guitar(Emma Grace's) than anything else. We'll see if it's a phase.
I want to get him a musical toy for Christmas. The problem....I can't find any little musical toys for BOYS. They are all pink!

Smores

Cool weather has finally come to Arizona!!

We have been enjoying every minute of the cooler weather here the last few weeks. Cooler weather means a chance to build fires in our fire pit at night. The girls love building fires and have smores. So we do it as often as we can. I'm sure we'll make another fire tonight as part of our family home evening. Of course, Charlie is quite interested in this fire thing. How do you teach a child who has no fear of anything that he can't touch the fire. Oh my word!! But he loves the finished product....smores. He gets very upset when the smores are all gone.
