...Easter!

I love Easter!  It's such a beautiful time of year!  I love the scripture - Moses 6:63 - where it says, "...all things bear record of me."  Easter time is such a testament of Jesus Christ.  Not only because I know of the sacrifice Jesus Christ made for each one of us and the blessing of resurrection, but also because of the beauty and the "newness" that surrounds us during this beautiful time of year!

I also love the fun family time we spend together!

We weren't able to get together our "traditional egg decorating" with family and friends this year, but we were bound and determined to color our eggs...just the six of us...at o'dark thirty...the night before Easter. 

Layne was in charge of  the "egg covers" this year!



I love this look...hmmm - this color or that color?!?



Silly boy!

It was a beautiful night!

Kyler's favorite!


On Easter morning the kids successfully found their baskets.  Then, we were off to church.  It was Fast and Testimony meeting which I thought might be interesting for Easter, but we had a beautiful musical number and the testimonies that were given about Jesus Christ made for a wonderful meeting!



After church, I needed pictures.




Silly Kenzie!  Did you notice she's not wearing glasses?
She has successfully been wearing contacts - much to her excitement!  
Karlee insisted we have a picture, too!  :)

Later, we went to Tyler and April's for our annual family dinner and Easter egg hunt.

I love that G'pa Mitchell is trying to scoot out of the way
before the kids are off and searching!




So cute!

Ryan found the last of Kyler's eggs...and struck the pose for a big hint! :)

And Kyler came running!


Sophia just chillin'!  She's pretty!

What a great day!
