New Year’s Eve & New Year FHE

New Years

We rung in the new year at the Hill home.  We had tons of fun treats, including a chocolate fondue.  There were sooo many munchies keeping us going through the night. 

For games it was Thompson’s vs. the Hill’s.  We had a family feud game naming the Top Ten Movies of 2009 and the Top Ten News Stories of 2009.  There was block stacking races and partner races.  Then of course leg wrestling started.

With fireworks and movies, we MADE IT to MIDNIGHT!!!!  Thanks for the fun Alesha!!!

Then tonight we did our New Year’s FHE.  I have LOVED this lesson on time and have used it for a few years now.  In fact when I started the story about the man helping improve the success of this company, Nathan quickly finished the story.  Yeah!, they are remembering what I’m teaching them!!!  Anyway, here is the link to the lesson. http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?hideNav=1&locale=0&sourceId=408bcb7a29c20110VgnVCM100000176f620a____&vgnextoid=198bf4b13819d110VgnVCM1000003a94610aRCRD I usually do the 1 minute timer at the beginning, then the rock object lesson, and last but not least the little story at the end about the company prioritizing a list for each day.  We end by making our goal collages.  Here is mine and the kiddos.
