Annual FHE's at Gma & Gpa Finch's















For the past couple of years Nic's mom and dad host our family and Aaron and Jane's family for family home evenings around Christmas time. This years theme was "No empty chairs at our eternal table." We were given gifts to open for 12 days of Christmas. Each gift being something that we can bring to our eternal table. Such as knowledge, friendship, togetherness, etc. Its been alot of fun going over there for these activities as well as opening up a present each day for the last 10 days. They put alot of time and energy into these gifts and we sure appreciate them and love them very much.
Also, every year Nic's mom makes the grandkids new Christmas outfits. This year me, my sister in law Jane decided we would like skirts that matched the girls'. Once again, Mom completely outdid herself!! She sewed mine in seconds! I swear. These dresses are beautiful. Brooklee, Brinley and Nellie looked so beautiful. Brodey and Jax had new Christmas sweaters. They looked handsome as well.

Quinn's mom gave everyone a little hanging sign for Christmas that said... No Empty Chairs. Along with that was a little letter. I bawled like a baby reading it. The little sign is one of my favorite gifts.
