Easter Time

This year Easter came twice.

Last weekend we were able to celebrate it with the Steeles since they were out of town this week.

Jack loved the Easter egg hunt in Nana and Papa's back yard.

It was fun for us to see him get excited about finding the eggs and his Easter Basket.

The week before that, I attempted to get some Easter photos of him and Zoey from two different sessions.

Both were failed attempts.

I maybe got 3 photos out of the first one and zero out of the second one.

I was so excited about them too because we had a cute white bunny (Jen's step mom's) to use!

Needless to say, Jack has officially hit the terrible twos and the days of sitting and smiling for the camera are over.

At least he looks cute even when he is trying to escape.

 Jack loved dying Easter eggs.
I love this picture, even though I just rolled out of bed (Matt lets me sleep in on Saturday mornings- yes he is the best)!
Jack's smile makes me happy. We love each other.

 

While egg dying, egg hunts, and massive amounts of chocolate consumption are fun, I made sure we had a family night centered around the true meaning of Easter.

I am so thankful for my Savior and his sacrifice for all of us.

It amazes me how much love he has for us.

I made a felt board and little lessons to go along with it for our Family Home Evenings.

Jack LOVES his "lessons."

It makes Monday nights fun.

I love that we are able to celebrate the Resurrection of our Savior.
I love this video.
Check it out if you have a second.
Happy Easter!
