I thought you all might enjoy this list from Dallin. He asked us for any input so I think it would be fun if you think of more to add it to this list. I thought he did a good job. I went and got my cholesterol check and the guy couldn't get blood out of my left arm so he really jabbed my right arm. Yowzers! That hurt for a long time. I thought of Kira. I'm glad I don't have to do that to other people! I have a media question to pose. Would it be cheaper to take our home videos somewhere to have them put on CD's or would it be just as well to buy the equipment and do it. Anyone with experience out there. I want to do the slides as well. I am wondering also how interested or how much need there is for 72 hour kits, 1st aid kits and food storage there is in our family. That might be a really fun theme for Christmas this year. Tell me what you think! MUMFor my first letter of the project I am supposed to write about the following: What ten commandments would you best summarize the rules, ideals, and taboos your family advocated?
1. If you want money, do a chore and earn it. Do your part (chores) to help out around the house.
2. Be home by scripture time (9:00 PM). If you can't be home by then or you want to stay out later, call and check in.
3. On your assigned day, you are in charge of all the prayers and dinner cleanup.
4. We support each other in what they are doing.
5. Get your homework and chores done before doing anything else.
6. We must have golden rod eggs on Easter. (Yes, that's a rule)
7. Follow the prophet. (and other church leaders)
8. If you make a mess, clean it up.
9. If you're not home by dinner time (5:30 PM) and you don't previously check in, you are in charge of cleaning up dinner.
10. 2, 4, 6, 8, Christensens are never late! (Even though we, the kids, never bought into that phrase, it was true.)
Here is Tyler's addition: Limited/monitored tv time
* Call home weekly
* If we're eating something really good for dinner eat as much of it as possible because the leftovers won't last long.
* Pay your tithing.

that's a fun list! mom, i bought a device that transfers your videos to dvds. remember, i got it on woot and had it shipped to home. anyways, i would be more than happy to help with that project--i bought this thing with that in mind. maybe we could plan a saturday and i could come down and we could figure it out and if the boys wanted to come too, we could make a party out of it!
Once you've digitized the home videos I want a copy.
Here are a few rules I thought of...
* Limited/monitored tv time
* Call home weekly
* If we're eating something really good for dinner eat as much of it as possible because the leftovers won't last long.
* Pay your tithing.
