Easter 2015

I am a little behind on my Easter Post due to the fact that the pictures were on my regular camera, but I'm trying not to get to far behind. Easter weekend was perfect. It was so nice having it on the same weekend as conference weekend. We spent Saturday at the Easter Egg hunt, listening to conference, and coloring Easter eggs. The girls had a blast at the hunt. Brooklyn had an arm full of candy that she hadn't put in her bag yet, and she yelled "Mom I'm winning." It was so fun to watch them get so excited about it. They had just as much fun coloring and putting stickers on their Easter eggs. Jace joined in on the fun, and enjoyed watching his sisters get so excited. Easter morning came with 2 very excited girls. The Easter Bunny had found them, even with threats that the Easter Bunny would skip our house if they didn't stop being naughty. The girls have been asking for a Mitt and a ball for almost a year now, and the Easter Bunny finally came through. They had also asked Steve for a real Pig and Cow to have as a pet, so the Easter Bunny found them a stuffed one to have until they can have on to show at the fair :) With all the excitement of Easter, it's sometimes Easy to forget the real reason we celebrate. I am so thankful for my Savior and his resurrection. I am so thankful it has given me the opportunity to be with my family for Eternity. I have a long ways to go to be where I should be as a wife, mother and person, but I am so thankful I can turn to my Savior and keep trying each day. We would be nowhere without the Gospel in our lives. I truly am grateful we had conference this weekend to hear from the Prophet and Apostles to remind us the real reason. I love my family, and I love my Savior!
