What a beautiful weekend! First, let me say how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to listen to a living Prophet and his Apostles! WOW! This General Conference was so wonderful and to combine that with an Easter Sunday was even better! Ava actually listened with us and would pick out words that she knew and faces she recognized! There was a few songs she knew as well and she would sing with us. My spiritual bucket has been filled and there is so many things to think about after this weekend! I should say 'think about' and act on! There is so much to do! No matter what your circumstances, life is good when you have the proper direction!
On Saturday afternoon, while Bailey slept, Ava and I colored Easter Eggs. She could hardly wait for the eggs to cool! She has been asking about Easter since last Sunday. Everyday she would wake up and want to know what day it was and what was exactly going to happen on EACH day before Easter! She's a little intense, you think? HaHa. It was fun though and kept me on my toes. That Easter Bunny was READY for her on Sunday morning!
checking out their stash! Bailey's was a little light on "stuff"....she'll get that next year!
After Conference we headed over to my cousin's for a perfect ham/potatoes Dinner. I was in charge of rolls but decided to make an egg bread instead. It was a new recipe for me but turned out really great! I didn't add the colored eggs in the bread like most people do - I will do that next year now that I'm confident with the recipe! Very delish and pretty easy! Unfortunately, I forgot to get a picture of the "after".
And now to the ever important 'egg hunt'! With just a few 'little' kids it was fun to watch them run all over the place. Of course there were way too many eggs for just a few kids but that made it funny. They would run past 5 eggs to get to a certain one! Funny!
It was just a really great weekend and I'm feeling so blessed today! Looking forward to having a great week!
Oh, and it's in the 80's here so we will be in the backyard all week with our fun little wiggly sprinkler thing! Water+sunscreen+outside= extremely happy kids!!! Awesome!
