FHE and chocolate chips for lunch

Inspired by my friend Queen Scarlett's postings about her family home evening lessons the last few weeks I decided to post our FHE activities as well. Since next weekend is general conference we had a mini lesson on who is who in the First Presidency and talked about following the prophet. We began by singing that all time favorite song "Follow the Prophet" taking turns being the leader and following each other around the room. Joseph didn't want to stop. He never wants to stop. Singing that is. But for Rebecca's sake we actually do some talking and discussing. In the end we ate our freshly baked snickerdoodles (thanks QS for the idea) which I have never made before in my life. We also shared some with the neighbors and brought some to a family who has helped us with airport pickup recently. The cookies were delicious. But I think I passed on my chocolate chip cookie gene to my son, because the next day around 11:30 he wanted a cookie. I offered him one of the snickerdoodles to no avail. Chocolate chip cookies is what he wanted. But since I didn't have any and wasn't about to make any right then and he was so grumpy about it I gave him a bowl full of chocolate chips and let him go at it. And obviously he didn't want lunch after that. There are days you just got eat chocolate chips for lunch. And it's okay.
