Easter Weekend

So Friday we had a major snowstorm,which
many thought would ruin our neighborhood
EGG HUNT and Breakfast, but as you can see....
the snow quickly melted and Saturday morning we were
good to go...
everyone checkin' out their loot.
The actual hunt of course doesn't
last very long, but afterwards we
had a potluck breakfast. Then all the
neighborhood kids played and the
parents just enjoyed the SUN and
friendly conversation.
I think we were there for over 2 hours!
Just the therapy I needed!!
Sun and girl chat time, while my
kids were all entertained.
The easter bunny made it too our home
with a few goodies and fun personalized
things for each of the kids.
And what is Easter Sunday without
new clothes. Poor Ame started getting a
sore throat Sat. afternoon. Had a very
uncomfortable night and morning on
Easter. She spent most of the morning
miserable on the couch, but really wanted
to go to church. So she made it through
Sacrament Mtg. (barely).
I tried really hard throughout the day to help the
kids focus on whats MOST important about this
day. We watched several video clips from
"The Life of Jesus Christ Bible Videos"
on lds.org. We talked several times throughout
the day about various things and Kaipo
gave a beautiful testimony of his love for
our Savior. He has such a sweet, intune spirit.
It was a pretty simple day, but hopefully a memorable
one. I know I felt the spirit several times
this day and my testimony of our Savior's
Love for me and all of us has increased.
The atonement has a more powerful meaning
to me and my appreciation for his sacrifice
has grown tremendously!
What a wonderful ending to my spring
BREAK, I just wish this past week
hadn't flown up soo quickly!!
