FHE Scavenger Hunt

Kayli found a Winnie the pooh picture that looked like a treasure map. She told me that Jesus was on there and she wanted to find Jesus. I told her I did to, so I decided to make a scavenger hunt to find Jesus.
First Kayli found the treasure map.

Then we followed the map to some sheep. We learned that the Lord is our Shephard and we follow him like sheep follow their shephard. Our sheep follow grandpa, their shephard.

Then we followed the map to St.George where we discovered nature and what Heavenly Father has made for us. He has made everything for us.

We hiked down a little trail (that we'd never been on) and found a cute little bench under a palm tree, a natural spring, and a bridge.

Look at this view! Can you imagine what it looked like when the saints made it here and when only the temple was here. How blessed are we for what they did for us.
Then we followed the map to Brigham Young's home. Here is where we learned about our Prophets and what they teach us.




And last our map took us to the temple where we found... JESUS. We read a book on temples and talked about Jesus and all he does for us.



It was a really fun and special FHE. Kayli is such an example to all of us. She wanted to find Jesus and I hope and pray that she always feels that way. We all need to feel that way and stay close to him when we get there.

How cute, what a great idea! We need to get together-argh I feel like we always see each other in passing and never make an official time to meet- sad we have to do that, but it is what it is. CALL ME
