Easter 2013

I love everything about Easter, especially when you haven't seen green grass or flowers in months (Utah). Where I live now, roses bloom outside our window all year long and green grass has to be mowed once a week and wake up my baby from his naps.

But I won't complain about the wonderful winters here, I just miss the first of spring in Utah where everything comes alive again. It reminds me of what Easter is all about, Jesus Christ and his resurrection and atonement for us. Being a Mormon, I believe that because Jesus Christ died for me, and because of his atonement, my family can live together forever. What a blessing!

The week before Easter, we went to an egg hunt downtown with our playgroup which was a blast! It lasted a total of 1 minute and was a little chaotic, but Rhett loved being outside with his buds. 

On Easter Sunday, we had our Easter basket hunt, which Rhett found in his favorite hiding place!

Poor little guy wasn't too excited about sitting still for pictures

Too bad about those wasted Cadbury eggs on the ground...glad those things are only around for Easter and Christmas!

Mom I found a rock! Even better than anything you spent money on and put in my basket.

I'm grateful for Easter, my Savior, and my family. Life is good. Better than I ever imagined it could be with these two boys in my life!
