FHE: Joseph Smith and the First Vision

Today we had a Family Home Evening Lesson

"Joseph Smith and the First Vision"

I found this wonderful blog

The Golden Seven

An LDS mother shares her family "A Day at a Time", her recipes, FHE lessons and

parenting.  She shares her teenage son's fight with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Each of the girls are excited to give the FHE to their families.

It is so hard for the girls to settle down after being cooped up in school all day, 

they have so much to say and share so it can be a challenge getting them to settle down.

We talked about the importance of taking time to be reverent and quiet so that the 

spirit can testify to each of their hearts and minds the truth of all things.

I encouraged the girls to have a quiet time each day to listen and feel the spirit and 

they will learn to recognize the spirit of the Holy Ghost more in their lives.

Cake Decorating

When I was a little girl I took cake decorating in 4-H and then decorated all of my children's
birthday cakes, made a few wedding cakes and even worked as a cake decorater
in the Thomas Market Bakery, SO when I heard that Thomas Market would let
the girls decorate a cake I was EXCITED!!
The girls had soooo much fun, they could hardly contain themselves.

 They learned to use the air brush, use a bag of icing with tips for their borders.....

and then Cheri brought out the fun stuff sugar flowers & big confetti!!

 All of the girls designed beautifully creative cakes....we were all impressed.
They worked very hard, it wasn't easy squeezing the frosting out of the bags.
Their little hands were sore, but didn't care.

 Look at those darling, happy smiles!!!

 The gals at the bakery were so kind... thank you.

 The girls wanted to thank Mr. Dennie Thomas.

I think he truly was pleased to see these happy little girls show off their cakes.

 Aren't they ADORABLE!!!!
