Easter Weekend

This year for easter Dan was not able to be with us because of work. So we started easter weekend early. We took the kids to see Rio which by the way is a very cute movie. After that we went up to dan's moms house for dinner and some egg coloring. It was kinda weird and sad to not have dan with us at church and to see the kids in there new Easter outfits. SO knowing that dan was not going to be here we did Easter baskets early. We gave the kids their baskets on tuesday night. My kids know that the baskets come from us. Which dose not bother me because we do not celebrate Easter for the Easter bunny and eggs. We celebrate it for the resurrection of our Heavenly father and the suffering he went thought for us. So we might be with him and our families eternally one day. I'm am so grateful for the atonement and what it means to me. There were some firsts for us this year one having Dan gone and Brayden getting to go on the Easter egg hunt this year. He still did not know what to really do but he had a great time. I also loved the kids outfits this year we all matched wearing turquoise and kaki colors. Other then not having my hubby here it was a good Easter. I love my family so much and am so grateful to be able to be a mom and a wife.
