Family Home Evening

As a family we try to get together at least once a month and we rotate who's house we get together at. We've been doing this for at least 8 months, and this is the first time Martin and I have hosted it. I was sooo stressed about fitting 15 people in our small apartment. It actually turned out fine. A little crowded, but very fun.

We had rolls and deli meat and cheese, a fruit tray, chips and three different types of salads.

We also celebrated Allie and Nathan's birthdays that were last week. Allie turned 10 and Nathan turned 8. We don't have any candles or matches at our house, so we had to use a lighter. They weren't as amused as we were.



My favorite thing we did was snowcones. They were very fun.
After food, snowcones and birthday cake we had a Rock Band Marathon. Everyone took turns and played for almost 4 hours.
All the kids got in on the fun too.






They really got into it, and Jason played almost the whole time.

I thought it turned out awesome everyone had tons of fun and stayed until almost 10pm. My neighbors were very patient and didn't complain about the drums and the kids running around.

Looks like it was lots of fun! I'm sure you were a great hostess. Tell Allie I love her hair short. Her and Nathan look SO grown up I can't believe it. Give them loves from me. And give yourself some from me too. ;-)
