The Monday after our Thanksgiving soirée, we hosted our inaugural FHE Christmas sing along. We got all the Christmas decorations up and invited friends and neighbors from around Palm Meadows to join us for an hour and a half of singing. My friend Martina brought her violin. She and I did a couple of duets {Gesu Bambino- my favorite!} and she played obligato to the rest of our songs. It was a fun opportunity to introduce the idea of Family Home Evening to our friends - the kids gave opening and closing prayers. Everyone came in their pajamas and brought a treat to share. Cori and I cranked up the AC to help things feel more cozy. Our dear friends, the Jacksons, came. And Grace, Grant and Eden all had friends attend from their classes. A few other moms stayed to sing with us as well. It was the start of a great tradition.
