Back To School Bash

For our Family Night we had our Back to school Bash.  Our theme this year was "Be Loyal to the Royal inside you".
The kids were so cute.  They all got dressed up.  Morgan helped (Bubba) make a Shield and decorate it.  Sydney got Sofie dressed up and they helped set the table and they all decorated the cupcakes.  We listened to a fun church CD and then we ate a nice dinner with our china.  We toasted to a new year as Daughters and a Son of God.  They all got to make a wish for the new year and then blow out a candle on their cupcake.  


We then had the kids sit on the couch and daddy gave them foot rubs while I gave them the lesson.  We first talked to Preston about The Armor of God and then to the girls about The crown they earn depends upon what is in their hearts.  In the end we were all crying.  It was such a special Family Night.  This doesn't always happen, but tonight it did.  I am so thankful for Prince Preston and my four Pretty Princesses...  Morgan, Sydney, Brynlee and Sofie. It is not easy to live in this world with all that is out there.  I am thankful that we can teach our children that they have a Father in Heaven that loves them and will always be with them to help them along their journey.  
I believe in them, and I love each one of them very much.

What a wonderful special memory you have made with your beautiful Princesses and Prince. They will always remember the special fhe's and the lessons they got from them. They will grow up with the awesome examples of there parents of how a Prince or Princess should be, this made me cry just reading it. Keep it up!
I love you guys ")
