Family Home Evening with Two of Our Favorite Families

We recently invited two recent convert families over for Family Home Evening. President made his famous Rudiyaki chicken for them and I baked sugar cookies and served them with ice cream. I've never met a filipino that didn't LOVE ice cream. After dinner the Assistants shared a Christmas Lesson, we sang some Christmas carols and then we played a couple of games. One was a game where we had about 12 symbols of Christmas on a tray. We talked about each one--things like a candy cane, etc. Then we left the room and removed a couple of the items. The first person to guess what was missing won a tootsie roll. After than we divided everyone up into two groups. We sang the song, "Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer," and handed them each a bag. We told them to use the contents inside the back to turn one of their members into Rudolf. Each group was in a different room. When the time was up each Rudolf had to come out and model their outfits for us. They were so cute. It was a lot of fun. We ended the evening with dessert.

Thanks dear friends for bringing laughter and fun to the mission home!
