Labor Day FHE

On Labor Day, we had our good friends the MaCallums over.  They recently moved back to the area from Utah where Ian just finished a BYU law degree.  We ate subs from Oswego Sub Shop, drank soda, ate good chips, and had a combined Family Home Evening where I gave an impromptu lesson on the Liahona in the Book of Mormon.  The kids got out all the toys, played well together, and ate Popsicles that slowly melted in the living room.  Here, we catch up with the kiddos watching a Lego cartoon they are currently into which is entitled Ninjago.  (You can see the remaining light of summer shinning on Parker.)

Hanging out with folks like the MaCallums is always an uplifting experience for me and Holly.  It reminds us that we are not the only crazy, young, Mormon family out there.  We learn that a lot of our trials are the same, a lot of our joys are the same, and that we aren't alone on this journey of parenthood.  A pleasant evening indeed.
