Easter



I love Easter time! I love the hunts, coloring Easter eggs, all the blossoms coming out on the trees and the tulips and daffodils all around. Things just feel so alive after the dead of winter. I love playing outside with my kids and seeing my friends out in their yards! Even if we do have a few days of cold and snow mixed in with the good weather it doesn't seem to bother me too much because I know it will all melt away soon.

We had a great Easter this year. We had an Easter egg hunt and colored Easter eggs with our friends the Eves on Saturday. On Sunday morning the kids woke up to find that both the Easter Bunny and the tooth fairy found our house. Yes Jacks lost his 2nd tooth!! How exciting. We went up to grandpa and grandma Jackson's house for our family Easter egg hunt. The kids looked so cute in their new Easter outfits and we headed for church. I am thankful for our Savior, Jesus Christ and for His sacrifice for each of us. I hope that I can be a better follower of Him and be more worthy of His blessings.
