Family Home Evening

I asked the kids what they wanted to do for FHE, and Audie said, "A house of order!" I looked online for pictures that I thought would represent the list as found in D&C88:119 "Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing; and establish a house, even a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God"

We got our the white board and talked about what it meant, drawing pictures of "needful things". The kids listed food, clothing, a house, scriptures, and water among those things they needed. Then we came to the list. I had drawn a house with windows in it and given each munchkin two pictures. As we read the list, we tried to figure out who had the picture that represented the "house" we were reading. From left to right, top to bottom we had: prayer, faith, learning, glory, order, God, fasting (the door on the addition).
Then while I got the treat ready (the remaining King Cake from Mormon Mardi Gras), they each got to draw their own house. Tim even drew one of his own! Counterclockwise: Tim, Audie, Chloie, Dougie (mine was the big one in the middle). :-)
