Easter was really laid back this year. Usually we get together with family for a hunt or a dinner. This year the Easter Bunny didn't come until the end of the day and Kendall was asleep. There was no big hunt with the cousins, just a quick egg hunt in the front yard. No easter presents were given and there was really no big dinner. My dad came over for dinner but it wasn't a feast or anything. Also, Ty found out about the Easter Bunny. You know what I mean. This picture depicts a very unhappy Ty and a very happy Kaycie. He realized she got 7 eggs and he only got to have 6. It's his own fault though. Before the Easter Bunny came to hide the eggs, he had 7 and she had 6 and he was rubbing it in her face, so he lost the bonus egg. He also learned his lesson. Also conference was on Easter Sunday so there was no Easter dresses worn.
Saved me some money!
Speaking of conference, I loved it. There was so much inspiration to speak on teaching our children in our homes. I'm going to try and do better. Today more than ever they need that spiritual strength and a strong testimony of their own. What better way than for me to share mine and guide them to the scriptures whenever they have problems, worries or questions. My goal is to be a great example of honesty, charity, faith, knowledge and obedience. I'm going to try and be more vocal with my testimony and push myself more in service. I'm so thankful for my mom who came back to the church when I was young. She took me and my brother and sister to church for so long all by herself. We were such brats too! What a strong woman. If she hadn't come back to church with us I don't know where I'd be. Thanks Mom! I love the Savior. I am so grateful to be a gospel doctrine teacher this year (never thought i'd say that) so that I can study harder than I ever have. I'm learning so much and my testimony is growing stronger. I'm thankful to Heavenly Father who loves me enough to challenge me in order to grow.
