After General Conference last October I was feeling like we needed to step up our game in the Scripture Study department. We have definitely tried hard to be consistent with discussing the New Testament scriptures in Come Follow me. We are far far FAR from perfect but we keep at it! I'd been feeling like we also needed to have the Book of Mormon part of our scripture study as well...but couldn't figure out how to make that happen in addition to Come Follow Me. Enter divine inspiration. Seriously- I had that thought that each of us should pick a favorite Book of Mormon scripture, write it out and work on memorizing it during the month. I told the kids I'd take them out on a lunch date once they memorized their scripture! They all did it and it was so fun to celebrate with a little one on one time!
Shake Shack with Grace!
In 'n Out with Lucy ( I've got some burger loving girls!)
Jamba Juice (and McDonalds!) with Marian
Corner Bakery with Grant. This picture is actually from somewhere else but I couldn't find our Corner Bakery picture. Grant LOVES Corner Bakery. He orders the same thing every time. Chocolate chip pancakes, no whip cream, no syrup, a side of bacon and a chocolate milk!
p.s. I look uh-mazing in this picture lol
I recorded video of each kid saying their scripture...but until I can figure out how to upload videos to the blog...here they are written out. They hung on our pantry door all October and I LOVED seeing these wonderful words each day.

This is something we definitely need to do again! I LOVE the Book of Mormon and I know it is true. It has been a constant source of strength, peace, wisdom, and comfort in my life. I hope it will be for my children as well!
