Happy Easter

I just love Easter. The egg hunt, coloring eggs, new dress clothes for the kids, chocolate, warmer weather, and family gatherings. Most importantly I love the Spirit at Church and at home when we discuss the Atonement of our Savior Jesus Christ. I am thankful for His suffering, sacrifice, and resurrection so that I can too be resurrected, forgiven of my sins, and return to live with my family and Father in Heaven again. Happy Easter everyone!
 
 
 
Here are a few pictures of the kids in their new Sunday clothes and play clothes. They were really good sports because I made them stop playing to change into their clothes for these pictures. What good sports and adorable models!
 






 
I did not pose this one, Hannah just planted one on Richard's check and this was his reaction. I love my babies!
 

Jan & Lani's Easter Party

Each year Chris's Aunt Lani and Uncle Jan put on a wonderful Easter party. We have missed the party for three years since we lived out of state and were thrilled to be back for this year. Once again it was wonderful to see family and the kids had so much fun I'm pretty sure they didn't want to leave, even after four hours of endless play and adventures. Thank you Lani, Jan, and Pam for putting on such a great get together!

Taggart Easter

Grandma and Grandpa Taggart had us over for dinner last night and a fun egg hunt for the kids. They were really excited and had a great time. Scott I'm sorry I cut off your forehead.
 


Here are Colby, Richard, Hannah, and Brielle listening to Aunt Annette's instructions.


 
Even Ella got some nice things. Here she is just chillin' with Grandpa. (Again, sorry I cut off your forehead!)




 
We had a fun time. Thank you Grandma!
