Family Home Evening!!!

We have been trying harder to have FHE each Monday night and the last two weeks have been so fun. Last week I surprised Oaks and Ryan and went to Walmart and bought a fire pit and hot dogs and firewood( from maverick don't buy it there it's all wet and it wouldn't burn very good) but came home put it all together really quickly I had to tell ry though sooner cause I needed his help putting it together and then we had roasted marshmallows and sat by the fire. Oak loved it!!!!! It will def. be something we will do lots...

This weeks family home evening was making sugar cookies for family for Valentines Day. A day late but it was fun to make them Oak was a great helper...
She was so cute when she would push the cookie cutter in she would shake cause she was pushing so hard. It was really sweet. THen she kept eating the cookie dough. She used the rolling pin and everything. Good job oak!!!! Ry was very helpful too... So stinkin cute. My mom gave me this cupcake cookbook for Valentines so I decided to use that to make the frosting but you have to hold your bowl over the stove while you make it and Ry was sweet enough to hold the bowl while I mixed for NINE MINUTES and what he failed to tell me is it was burning his hands the whole time. Thanks trooper Ry for helping me it turned out really yummy and the cookies were good.
Now today oak and I will deliver the Cookies FUN!!!

Oak sure makes some classic faces- she is such a sweet gal and has the softest baby skin in all the land! Way to go w/ FHE- looks like it was really fun and I'm sure the cookies were very tasty! Oak needs a little apron huh?
(So now that I left you a comment can you post again soon?)
