Sunday Artwork
Getting through sacrament meeting with four kids can be a challenge. I can picture the day when all four of them sit riveted by the speakers and completely reverent, but that is certainly years/decades in the future. For now, we are taking baby steps toward reverence. We have long since eliminated treats and toys from our sacrament meeting routine. Now we are down to reading books and coloring. I laughed when I was cleaning out the church bag and saw the quality works of art that Emily has created in the last couple of weeks. Obviously the love of Star Wars and Indiana Jones is not limited to Ben at our house.

That's so cute! At what point did you eliminate treats?
I don't know why I'm worried anyway, since we've all basically gone inactive.
I think we stopped taking treats when Elise was about 2 1/2. There comes a point when snacks become more of a nuisance than a help. To tell the whole truth, Nate usually has a package of fruit snacks in his pocket or some cereal in the diaper bag just in case Abby needs a distraction, but most weeks it doesn't come to that.
that is some serious talent. I think our kids are missing out. They don't know much about Star Wars or Indiana Jones. We're going to have to rent the movies.
Keri, our kids haven't really seen all of the Indiana Jones movies. Nate editted some of the more graphic parts out of Raiders and we let them watch it last week. Most of their knowledge comes from the Lego game for the Wii (that is why Emily's drawings look so Lego-like).
editted, edited, whatever :)
