We had a wonderful Easter this year! Holidays just seem to get more and more fun as our children get older - it's almost impossible for them to hide their excitement! I truly love to see my children smile, and boy have they been smiling lately! After being spoiled by family for a week straight and getting all the attention in the world, they woke up Sunday morning with MORE treats and MORE games to play! One of these days they are going to discover that everyday isn't a holiday.....or maybe life really is just one big vacation for a kid! They don't have to worry about anything, just enjoy each and every day! I'm so glad that I have my children to show this to me because if I cross my fingers maybe I can keep a portion of that carefree attitude for myself!
On Sunday, we spent a lazy morning in our pajama's, colored Easter eggs, went on an Easter Egg hunt around our house, had a wonderful time at church (minus the episode of Taylor hitting again in nursery), and had a delicious dinner out at my aunt & uncle's house in Mesa. It was a full day, but very peaceful and relaxing! We give thanks to our Heavenly Father for sending his son to atone for us that we might be forgiven of our sins! I'm especially thankful because of Him that I will always get to be with my family forever! I love my family and I don't think I could live without them!

Jordan helping Taylor with her Easter Egg hunt around our house - All the Spiderman eggs had "monies" in them which she was really excited about.

Jordan & I have really been wanting a nice picture of Christ in our home. Taylor & I went to Deseret Book on the Friday before Easter and this is the picture that we found. I just love it! It brings such a comfort of peace to me every time I look at it. I was also very excited because it was on sale!
This is Taylor on the way home from Deseret. I was laughing because of the irony. I think that she looks just like Mary....so holy! I think she was trying to make up for the fact that I told her she could pick out one book at the store about Jesus to read and these are the ones she picked.....
2 Thoughts to share!:
HOW CUTE! The girls look absolutely adorable in their Easter Dresses. I'm guessing that you got them from Rag Doll Clothing. I might just have to check them out! Also, love the bows! Did you make them? I wouldn't be surprised...you're getting so talented with those lately! How fun for Taylor to color Easter Eggs with her Daddy. Jordan is so patient and cute with her. You guys are such a cute little family. Can't wait to see you Wednesday. We've been missing you!
The pictures of the girls in their Easter outfits are darling. I can't believe how old Bentley looks, and how much Tays hair is growing. It is fun to see the pictures of you and all the fun times you have together. Miss all of you and can't wait to see you. We love you!
