This year our ward is doing a 40 day fast.
Each family signs up for a different day to fast as
a family. We chose to fast on the Wednesday before
Thanksgiving. I wanted this is be a
memorable day for our family.
With the kids out of schooll,
we decided it would be the perfect day
to see the Joseph Smith movie
at the Legacy Theatre. It was a wonderful
experience for our family.
Our ward is also collecting 450 board games to
wrap and give to a title 1 school in Salt Lake.
We had fun buying and wrapping presents
for this great cause.
We each picked a different game to give.
To break our fast we had dinner at The Garden.
After a day of fasting and gift giving to others,
it was fun for our kids to start thinking about
what they would like for Christmas.
The girls filled out their
Christmas wish lists.
Lucy still loves pink piggies.
After dinner we mailed our letters
to Santa Claus in this cute mailbox.
It was a great day & way to get in the hoilday spirit.
