1. Family Home Evening. This really has become a lot more fun. Before it seemed like the boys were too young to get much out of it or participate in much. Josh LOVES FHE now though- in fact almost every day he asks if its FHE day. He participates in the lessons, and loves picking games and treats for us to play. Dekker, watching Josh's example even tries to participate and loves to play the games. Plus with Jake in the young mens and schedules getting busier we don't have as many evenings to spend quality family time together- so its more appreciated when we do.

2. Warmer weather. Its been warmer and sunnier lately- which is so nice. The cul-de-sac paly group time (basically 3-5pm Mon-Fri if the weather is decent) has been reinstated. Its so great for the boys to get out and play with the other kids- and I get some time to compare notes with the other parents too.

3. Pizzadillas. I stocked up on Mozzerella cheese, pepperoni, spaghetti sauce and tortillas- cause these are pretty quick, easy, and the kids will eat em.
