Family Home Evening

We had a really fun family night, tonight!  We did a scripture treasure hunt!  We talked about how there are many treasures to be found in the scriptures when we read them, but tonight there was an actually treasure.  There were different clues hidden throughout the house and each clue led to another clue and then ended with a treasure.  The girls ran like crazy with Carson trailing behind trying to keep up. :)  We told them if they weren't fast that pirates would come and get the treasure before they got to it.  They loved that so they hurried even faster.  So here are some pics of the fun event . . . 
Here is daddy reading a clue from the scriptures
Here is Hailey, giddy with excitement . . .

Another clue in one of the pots in the
 kitchen . . .
and yet another clue in mommy and daddy's room . . .

Looking for a clue behind the couch in the living room . . .
Looking for the treasure under mommy and daddy's bed . . .
I wonder what's inside?
Mmmm.... chocolates and other goodies.  Here they are eating a piece of chocolate!  Emma, after putting a chocolate in her mouth said, "mmm, tasty!"  Gotta love it!
