Easter 2009!

Easter is a wonderful time to reflect on our Savior and what the atonement means to each of us. I have really enjoyed Easter this year. We have tried as a family to be more centered around Christ instead of eggs and bunnies. I have been amazed at how much my children understand Easter and what Christ suffered and did for us.

One of my favorite parts of Easter this year was attending an Enrichment meeting centered on the last week of the Savior's life. We also talked about Passover and what takes place during this time. The different food from the Passover was served for refreshments. It was truely a wonderful and spiritual experience.

Every year, Easter brings new outfits for the kids and pictures. Here are this year's Easter pictures. Michelle's hair looks awful, but it was a fight to get her to do anything with it. She was insistant that it be down and not up in pretty bows of any kind. Some days it is easier to let her have her way than fight with her. The sad part, she is only three!!
