08.12.13 "The cold never bothered me anyway"

Frozen

08.12.13 Date night!!Tonight for date night we went to see the new Disney movie Frozen. I haven't really seen or heard much about it, but Kelvin had read good reviews of it, it was supposed to be the best Disney movie since Beauty and the Beast and Melissa told me it looks really good on the adverts. ITS AMAZING!!! The music is sooo good in it and the story is always fab. The princesses in it are gorgee, the older one Elsa has beaut hair like the girl from Tangled which i was obssessed with trying to do when it came out.


(Amazing hair!!)

 My favourite song from the movie is called "Let it go" I love it, but then I came home and found at Demi Lavato sings it, which was a bit gutting!
There is a cutsiee little snowman in the movie called Olaf he is so funny and cute, I want a pet one! We got our usual €10 deal which was perfect and it was even a 3d movie which was just great that we didn't have to pay extra. Baby Kelvin came with us this time yeyy, he slept for the first half of the movie then woke up. He actually wore 3d glasses for quite a while so he could see the movie properly, normally he just knocks them off, I was gutted I couldn't take a picture he looked soo cute!




FHE

We had a great FHE this week. Kelvin absolutely LOVES studying the Gospel, he is a great teacher and understands things and points things out that I never would have realised, he always makes me want to try harder with my studying, he would prefer to read his scriptures to a magazine any day. I hope to one day be similar to Kelvin with this, I would love to have a whole library of books which I have read through and can give little quotes and stories from each one, my Dad was also very good at this, we have a whole library of church books in our house. Church books are far more beneficial than any other magazines or stories, they help you in just the right way and make you realise your potential and worth in a much better way than reading a "Look" magazine would. Although I do love my celebrity gossip catchup, actually I don't even read anything any more, since having baby K, I have bought 2 magazines and it had literally taken me 3 weeks to read each one, now on a daily basis I read the Very Hungry Caterpillar to baby Kelvin, which he absolutely LOVES (im already planning his 1st birthday party a Very Hungry Caterpillar/ Ugly bug ball, ahhhhhhhhhhh). Anyway back to FHE, we drove down to the beach which is just around the corner from our house and we decided to study, "The Family: A Proclamation to the world". We have already read through this plenty of times by our selves, but I think it was the first time reading through together, and having our little baby too we were able to understand more fully our roles and responsibilities. Below are a few quotes stood out to me...

"The family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children"

"ALL HUMAN BEINGS—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. "
The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave." 
"HUSBAND AND WIFE have a solemn responsibility to love and care for each other and for their children. “Children are an heritage of the Lord” (Psalm 127:3). Parents have a sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness, to provide for their physical and spiritual needs, and to teach them to love and serve one another, observe the commandments of God, and be law-abiding citizens wherever they live. Husbands and wives—mothers and fathers—will be held accountable before God for the discharge of these obligations.""Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities." 
"By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners."
 It was great to read over this together, I'm going to make a goal to study it often, as the principles discussed within it are soo important in raising a happy and eternal family.
