Easter

Baby's First Easter

There was no sitting still for the camera on Easter morning. 

Sybil loved dumping out the eggs, opening the eggs, and throwing the eggs. And if she could get a hand on the Easter grass, I'm sure she would love that too. 

The night before Easter I was getting the boys ready for a visit from the Easter bunny. I asked them, "Do you know what happens tomorrow?" Gage said, "We celebrate Jesus Christ and go to church." Nothing about candy or baskets or bunnies. I wanted to stand up and yell "Hooray!" Instead I smiled, kissed him on his cheek and said, "That's right, buddy." Then we talked more about the resurrection and what it means for us every day. We talked about how grateful we are for the Atonement. 

The next morning there was candy and baskets and chocolate, of course. But we also went to church, sang Easter hymns and celebrated Jesus Christ.
