FHE Ensign Picture

For those of you who aren't amember of the
LDS church I need to explain what the picture is all about.
We are encouraged to have a family night once a week to teach our children
about the Lord and to have fun together. It is
called Family Home Evening, or FHE for short.
In our churchwide magazine titiled the Ensign, there
are often pictures of families having Family Home

Evening. Such as this one below. Notice everyone is smiling.
Everyone is paying attention. Happiness all around.

At our house FHE consists of Millie mad every week if she
doesn't get to pick the treat and pouting in the corner.
Jefferson doing head stands on couch and falling on other
children who in turn start crying. Ruth crying for milk. Karen
bored. Jacob wrestling with James and David and I after asking people
nice a couple of times are now YELLING "It's time for PRAYER!"
SOOOO. On this one occassion. We decided to briefly talk about
how important it is for people to chose righteous leaders in our government
and then we just sat down and watched Prince Caspian. Not too spriritual in nature
but hey, we were having together time. :) So before the movie started I had to
take a picture of everyone sitting there on the couch. One of our rare cooperative moments.
Lets celebrate.

What a great picture. I loved the example you posted as well. I would like to know where they find these picturesque children to post in the Ensign so I can get one.

We are excited to have Karen come and visit.
