We become what we want to be by consistently being what we want to become each day.

What I loved about Easter...

*Seeing all the kids in their matching Easter finery...I'm going to get away with it as long as I can! Dyl had to wear his cowboy hat and do his new signature pose (thumbs up, dude!) Aren't they too cute!
*Having an Easter egg hunt with friends (even though it was FREEZING!-thus the lack of photos!)*Having an EGGstravaganza with more friends which included an egg toss, an egg relay, an egg roll and for the grand finale an egg drop...so much fun. Again there are a deficit of pictures because I was the organizer and it is hard to take pics, carry around a 1 year old and call the shots...but there you have it and we had a great time. Luckily it was much warmer than the previous day's egg hunt...the weather here is crazy this time of year!*Happy kids enjoying the "fruits" of a certain bunny's visit (Grace and James are MIA in this shot and I really have no excuse for the ONE picture I took this day...bad Mommy!) Doesn't Dyl look thrilled! (Along with the "thumbs up", he has a thing for going shirtless. I'm lucky to get him to leave it on when in public, so I don't fight it at home!)Easter baskets were a little lack-luster this year...I wasn't all that into it (but that's a different post for a different time!)

*And finally, enjoying conference from the comfort of our own reverence tents. There's not a better way to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior than by hearing the words and testimonies of His chosen leaders. What a great conference it was.

What I didn't (and still don't) love about Easter...

*Finding these all over the place!I hope you all had a spEGGtacular day, too! (Sorry, couldn't resist!)

You have great taste - my children looked just like your children in their Easter outfits! I mean almost exactly from your sweet Grace on down.

I know I haven't posted before - or maybe I have? - I have to say I'm always inspired when I come to your blog...I just noticed your Knock Off Wood link - I think I wish I had a saw or your ability to do the projects they have over there! Hope all is well - and that you had a fabulous time in FL!

I love all the Easter pics, but my favorite are the reverence tents for conference. What a good idea! And I'm with you on the plastic eggs being everywhere after Easter - I was gone this year, but I got Daniel a bunch of wrapped candy to hide around for the kids - no eggs! They didn't even miss them.
