Song, Scripture, Prayer

Back in June we added scripture study to our nightly song and family prayer.

Tommy and I have been amazed at how much our family has grown from this simple thing. We only read a few verses a night and discuss it. We have had many answers to prayer through this small act. I can not believe we only started doing this now. I love it.

The kids do, too. They have all learned to sit quietly for the most part and everyone participates....
.
...most of the time...

Here is Odogg studying so quietly and calmly.

This would be the Oriental Trading Company catalog. Ever since all the Christmas mailers have been coming he has been CONSUMED by the dream of being a "consumer". He studies these for hours and carries them around everywhere. While my mom was here this Dec she even hunted down a Walmart ad in the paint isle because it was the one he has lost.


Is this post sac-religious?

Here he is the next morning....

He woke up and came back to the same spot to continue dreaming where he left off.

after almost an hour I sent him to go get dress and help Nifae clean their room.

I had just finished getting Honey Girl ready for the day and this is what I found 15 minutes after I sent him into the room.

Nifae's Cougar Creation

Nov 2010

This was Nifae's picture he took for his Cougar Creation. The theme was Dare to Dream. This is Hurricane's version of Reflections.
It was fun to watch Nifae get everthing just the way he wanted it.

We have the cutest cowboy neighbor boys. When they are not riding their horses they are doing something equally cool. My boys may just need to get a set for Chirstmas this year!

Proud as a peacock...

...that she can now dress herself. :)
