FHE Ideas

About a month after Christian and I got married, we decided that Christian would be in charge of keeping us on track with daily family scripture study, and I would be in charge of planning FHE every week. Definitely I feel like I came off with the bad end of that deal. I have the hardest time thinking of things to do every week that we both enjoy and that would bring us closer together. It would be easy if it were just me, but sometimes it seems like Christian doesn't enjoy doing anything.

So far, I've basically rotated between a few set activities, including: reading the Ensign together, going for a walk, playing a game that we both enjoy, and what I call "dealing with family business," which usually means that we go shopping. I feel like I've occasionally come up with a genuinely good idea, like when we had a paper airplane-making contest, when we sat down and made a budget, when we made a plan for food storage, or when we took a questionnaire about our expectations for each other, but these good ideas are few and far between.

Basically, I'm asking for help. What does everyone do for FHE? Please, I need ideas!

  1. I don't have any good ideas but just wanted to point out that I think that the mom and dad from the FHE picture look like you and Christian. If he had glasses, it'd be downright uncanny.
