Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter this year! We were able to go to the Easter Pageant, which is always amazing...and this year it was extra special because Chris' sister and cousin were in the pageant. There is no better way to start Spring than to see the Easter Pageant and learn about Christ's life and the Resurrection. Grant said something really sweet during the pageant- he said to Chris' mom, "Grandma, I didn't cry when the mean guys hurt Jesus because I knew he would come out of the tomb and be alive again!". What a simple, yet important, thing to know as a child!

We are feeling especially grateful for His love right now as we go on this new adventure. Chris just got called to be the 2nd Counselor in the Bishopric! I know he will be amazing in this calling! I also know that it will not be easy. Our wards got divided and we are now in a new ward. It has been really hard to "say goodbye" to the women that I love so much and especially the young women I worked with for a short time, yet got to know and love! This is a great opportunity to meet new people though and I'm looking forward to being in Relief Society and serving new sisters. Our Bishop said that it couldn't be more perfect to meet for the first time on Easter Sunday, being that Easter is all about new life, which I thought was a great way of relating it! Right now me and the boys are working on being extra good for Mom, since Dad is gone a lot right now...nervous for when Benjamin comes, but have already had TONS of offers to help with the boys from people in my new ward. So grateful that everyone looks out for one another!! :)

The rest of the day went well with family and food and, holy cow, lots of candy! I don't think the boys need any more candy until Halloween! We hope you all had a great Easter and enjoy the pictures.

Sorry these are so small. Thought it would help save time when uploading them...
