Tonight, Dan gave a great lesson for FHE and we were actually able to get through the whole lesson without yelling at the boys to "sit down and listen!" And suprisingly, Lauryn stayed asleep in her swing! If we make sure we have an activity and treats after the lesson, it's usually a good incentive for them to be good. So after the lesson, Dan planned a very cute activity. We painted our feet and made footprints of everyone in the family. A good keepsake we will have for a long time. Everyone had a lot of fun doing it, except for the baby. She didn't care for the wet paint on her ticklish feet... the boys thought that was pretty funny!

What a great idea to make everyone's feet prints! Looks like a fun activity! Your boys are so cute!!
Hey, don't hate me if we do this too....Dan, you really ARE the man! Such a cute idea! Miss you guys!
I totally hear you on the FHE thing. We are lucky if everyone is sitting in the same room, let alone listening to the lesson. And most of the time, I cave after reading a short scripture and we just play games. But I love this idea! I think I will have to try it. By the way, can I link you to my blog???
That is a cute idea! We did that on t-shirts for Lang and Ragan when Madelyn was born (the shirts said "Big Brother" and "Big Sister"). Fun, fun, fun!!
PS - I also get the race-to-get-through-FHE problem. We bribe the kids with cash. $50 to the kid who is the quietest ;o)
Angela, Wow $50! Do they ever get the money? If they do, your kids are going to be rich!
