FHE, Flies and Grapes

We had a wonderful family night on Monday. We made a family shield. Troy got very into it because he loves the shield that captain America has. I've been needing to put more thought into our FHE lessons, so that our boys would be better at listening. Elder Scott's talk gave me a push. Troy talked about the family shield in his prayers that night. Love that boy. Our neighbors, the Boyer's, made us the cute Halloween plate above the shield! 



We have had over 100 flies in our house the last two days. I'm serious. And that's gross. At first we just killed them one by one because we didn't know how many there were. After an hour we had killed around 40-50. We got a little too into it..


The next morning I discovered a bunch more on the lining of our windows. Auh! Get out of our house! I got wise and got the insecticide. 

This was one spray on one small window. 


Needless to say, I spent the morning cleaning. Lots and lots of cleaning. Then we sprayed all the windows. I still see one every now and then, but I'm pretty good at killing them on the spot with a rag. I guess I got a lot of practice! I'm SO done with bugs. Katelyn got 9 mosquito bites outside that made her eyes and arm swell. I've just got to get better at prevention!

But let's end on a happy/funny note. Katelyn was so sad that we wouldn't give her more grapes. She has 5 in her mouth. 


Oh my goodness, is it bad that I can't stop laughing at this picture?
