Easter

We had a great Easter weekend! We were inspired by the words our Prophet and other church leaders. It was wonderful. It was full of good friends, family, and yummy food!

Saturday we watched the AM session of General Conference at our house and spent the morning together. Jake and I did our own Easter egg hunt too! Jake hid eggs for me upstairs and I hid eggs for him downstairs. It was fun! Then we went over to our friend E & C's house to spend the rest of the day with them and their cute kids L & N.
We watched the PM session of General Conference and ate a yummy ham dinner. E and I had some much needed girl time with the boys watched the Priesthood session (and the babies) of conference. We followed that up with a s'mores stuffed cookies. YUMMY!!!
Easter Sunday we got up around 8:45 (which is sleeping in ALOT for us!!) and watched the AM session of general conference. Then we zipped on over to J&K's house to hang with them and M & Baby S. M did a glow in the dark Easter Egg hunt when it got dark. J made a yummy pork roast and potatoes. Needless to say we had a very good weekend! Jake even held Baby S.... That never happens! It was cute! He rocked her to sleep and was all smiley at her! Love it! Happy Easter!


Also, the reason for the Easter season is to remember our Savior Jesus Christ's victory over death. He paid the ultimate price for each of us and then rose on the third day. Resurrection is possible through Jesus Christ. We are so blessed to have this knowledge. Jake and I are so grateful that because of Jesus Christ we can be together forever. FOREVER. Isn't that amazing!? Remember the reason for the season!
