Happy Easter


Happy Easter!
The kids loved coloring Easter eggs!

Handsome Daddy and Cole!

It seems impossible to get them both to smile, but I love this picture because it shows so much of there personality!


I could not get them to pose together except for this one picture, and I didn't want to be late for church, so I didn't keep trying.  And Alice was being uncooperative so I don't have one of just her!

Decorating Ashley's grave for Easter!

The year Ashley passed away Easter was a little earlier.  She passed away the Thursday right before Easter.  I have always had a testimony of our Savior and the sacrifices he made for us.  But that particular year Easter took on a whole new meaning and deepened my appreciation for His life and Resurrection.  I am so grateful He sacrificed His life for us, and overcame death, allowing us the opportunity to live with him and our Father in Heaven again.  I am so grateful that someday we can be resurrected and that our bodies will be made perfect!  I'm grateful that at the time when our Savior atoned for our sins He suffered all the pains of this world, and so when I need Him to help me when I'm struggling, He knows exactly how to comfort me and help me get through.  
Easter means more to me then ever before and I'm so grateful to have a holiday to celebrate the Resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ.
