Mothers Who Know

"Mothers who know" do less. They permit less of what will not bear good fruit eternally. They allow less media in their homes, less distraction, less activity that draws their children away from their home. Mothers who know are willing to live on less and consume less of the world’s goods in order to spend more time with their children—more time eating together, more time working together, more time reading together, more time talking, laughing, singing, and exemplifying. These mothers choose carefully and do not try to choose it all. Their goal is to prepare a rising generation of children who will take the gospel of Jesus Christ into the entire world. Their goal is to prepare future fathers and mothers who will be builders of the Lord’s kingdom for the next 50 years. That is influence; that is power." ~Julie Beck

Our Family project

A few months ago we were trying to help Rebecca figure out a way to help her earn some money and Ryan had a brilliant idea: He started working things out with the kids and this is what they came up with.

JAPANESE DINNER DATE NIGHT

$30 per couple
Babysitting included
we will watch your kids in our basement.


2 Separate Seatings:
5:30 pm & 7:30 pm for each night


Friday April 17th

Sushi-Futomaki rolls, Cucumber rolls, Inarizushi
Sukiyaki
Curry
White Rice
Ice Cream
Fortune Cookie

Saturday April 18th

Sushi-Futomaki rolls, Cucumber rolls, Inarizushi
Ginger Beef
Curry
White Rice
Ice Cream
Fortune Cookie


Reservations are required call us or email me.
Call by Wednesday April 15th
There is limited seating.

100% of proceeds will be used for Back to School
for Darren, Kathryn, Jessica, Stephanie, and Rebecca.
$51 value per couple plus babysitting & gas saved!

So I thought I would post this for them. Ryan and Darren are going to do all of the cooking and the girls and I are going to babysit. Anybody is welcome to attend. We are going to limit seating to 5 couples per time slot but I was thinking it would be fun for people to arrange to do it together. You need to pick either Friday or Saturday because we are serving one different main course on each night.
If you know Ryan, which most of you do he is not going to let you starve. If you go away hungry that is your own fault. If you have any questions let me know. Kerri
