Easter and Conference

We've had so much fun these past few weeks. We got to listen to general conference, which is always a blessing, and then we got to party with the easter bunny the very next weekend! Our sweet little Sammy was so good to cooperate and "watch" (or let us watch) conference that we tried to play hard between sessions. These are just a few of the things we did to pass the time and enjoy eachother...

Jeremiah is busy teaching valuable lessons to our son! He'd better love climbing!

He has also been really excited to play the drums for us. He goes upstairs and calls our names until we both come up to watch him. You can all appreciate it too! Here's a sneek peek...

Our little drummer boy!

Easter was really great! We got to celebrate all weekend with all the family! We started the fun on Friday with my family. Grandma stuffed TONS of eggs and hid them in the back yard. We ate dinner and then let the kids loose. My niece and nephew got the brint of the goods because Sammy thought it was more fun to just be outside, running around. He didn't care to pick up the eggs, but he thought it was fun to throw them like balls. Not until he got inside and started opening them did he realize what this was about. He made out really well with his favorite cookies!



Gather eggs, or climb...CLIMB!



Or maybe a run...



There's stuff in these... (cookies)

It's even more fun to share!!

The next adventure was with Jeremiah's family on Saturday. We colored eggs, had a hunt (in the livng room because of the rain) and then all the kids got lots of treasures from grandma! They are so spoiled!!

Painting is great!

And Coloring...

Just let me get my oreo's, then I'll come look for eggs...

Are there cookies in here???

I got all this fun stuff, but where's more cookies... Grandma really spoiled him and he loves everything!

Easter morning was really fun too!! We put the easter basket out on the coffee table the night before. When Sammy woke up on easter morning, he seemed to remember that the easter bunny was going to come fill the basket with stuff. He was really anxious to get us up and go see. He was right! The easter bunny spoiled him too!! He even hid eggs for Sammy to find.

Can we do the puzzle...





This stuff is great!!






Here's an egg! Lets find more!!


After a wonderful day at church, we got to have an easter dinner at grandma's house to top it all off. All the children were dressed up so nice. We are so blessed to have this easter season to celebrate our Savior and the atonement for all of our sins. The Savior has blessed us with the gospel to show us the way to return to Him. I am grateful for the example he set for us to follow. We are also so very blessed with family to help us on the path back to our Heavenly Father and we love to spend time with all of them! We Love you all and wish you all a happy spring!
