Happy Easter Everyone!


There is a picture that my good friend took that pretty much sums up our Easter this morning...


Yep! We got about 2 or 3 inches of snow during the night. It quickly melted during the morning and by the evening, it was all gone. ( Sorry Jessica! I thought your picture was perfect and I just had to use it! )

We spend our Easter over at Troy's parents house. With the traditional Sunday ableskievers shown here, we watched the Sunday morning conference session.

Here's Benjamin during the closing prayer...


While we were watching conference, the boys were thirsty for something to drink and they found these cool straws that Grandma provided for them. They had fun!


After conference was over, I went outside to hide the Easter eggs for the boys to gather up. They were filled with those mini M&Ms. Mmmmmm...


I don't know why I didn't get any pictures of Ryan during his egg hunt. I took mostly videos of him finding them all. They both had a great time looking for all the eggs. They also got presents. Benjamin got a small basketball hoop with a little ball and Ryan got a bubble blower with bubbles. They were both pleased with their gifts! It was rewarding for me to see their reaction!

I am really blessed that I was able to listen to conference this weekend. Some of the things I learned was the fact that children are never too young to be taught the gospel and about Christ. That really made me feel like I need to repent and help the boys understand about Christ and the importance of His teachings. I am going to make a conscience effort to bring the gospel more into our home so the boys can feel the influence of the Spirit.

The other thing I felt during conference was the fact that our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are real and I felt their power. I felt how supreme they really are and how much they are aware of all of us. It's amazing of their power and might and all the things they are able to control but they still know who I am. That's amazing. I am very grateful for that.
