Easter was full of candy, bonding with the ward, and focusing on the Savior. We had great family nights and Sunday lessons about why Easter is so special. I'm incredibly grateful that the Savior was resurrected. And because He lives, we will be with our families again. That means a lot to me. Words can't even describe.
Easter morning was busy with getting to church on time at 9 a.m. We had our Easter baskets after church and I didn't snap a pic before the kids changed. Katelyn stayed in her dress, of course. Any excuse to wear a dress. Troy likes to act very serious for pictures lately, and Liam is doing his best to stay standing still.
The ward campout is a tradition that our ward does on Good Friday. School is out, and we get together in the afternoon and then stay the night. We had so much fun playing ultimate frisbee, the kids played on the playground, and up late playing games. The Easter egg hunt was in the morning and we had plenty of eggs.
While we waited for the eggs to be hidden, Rachel S. pulled out a giant parachute from her car. I need to get me one of those!
Katelyn isn't used to having so much candy all at once, I think she felt like she had to hide just in case we would stop her.
Ring pops were the favorite candy this year.
Conference was wonderful. I tried out these raspberry cinnamon rolls from melskitchencafe. They were SO good.
We watched conference with the Howards for the afternoon session. I am SO grateful for these good friends! Our kids love their girls and we love hanging out with them.
