Easter Weekend

We, like all of you, had a wonderful weekend.  Full of fun, candy, food and testimonies.  I am FULL in more ways than one!  We started off with our traditional indoor, early-morning egg/basket hunt.  They found all the eggs then the search was on for their baskets.  It took a little time but they were pretty darn excited when they found their fun-filled baskets.  We sampled some candy, had our traditional Goldenrod breakfast, read some scriptures, did an egg activity with symbols from the last days of Christ's life, and watched a few Easter 'Mormon Messages'.  It was a great morning. 


Natalie dug right into this chocolate bunny and by 9 a.m. had a sugar buzz you wouldn't believe. 



A little baby cleavage never hurt anybody
After church we went over to the home of the family David works for.  There we had a tasty meal, a great egg hunt (the girls came home with some cash!), fed some horses and played and played.  



I'm so grateful for this Easter holiday.  I feel like every year my understanding and testimony of the atonement grows deeper.  I'm so grateful for the knowledge that we have and for a Savior who did what we could not.
