spring

Me: I think spring is my new favorite season.
J: Oh no, don't even say that. spring is MY favorite season. You are always talking about fall so you need to stick with that. Don't steal my season.

He's got a point. I'm possessive about fall, but there's something about spring I'm startin' to like.

As I watched conference this weekend, I was even more thankful for our life and our home.  I was reading on Yahoo News an article on our church and it made me even more appreciative of the truths that we have and our beliefs. Every day when I walk into our home I'm reminded of our Savior. When I was deciding on how to decorate our home I knew that I wanted "The Living Christ" and "The Family: A Proclamation to the World" framed and on display above our entry table.  We're still working on our house but this section is definitely finished! Disclaimer: our house is never as neat as it appears in photographs. Just saying. 

easter

We are so lucky to have Mom Ruth in town for today! Our day started off with her famous french toast, sausage, bacon & fruit for breakfast. YUMMMY. We then watched General Conference and I loved every minute of it, of course. I didn't get to watch yesterday's sessions and I can't wait to do that this week. Then we looked/planned for our vegetable garden/flowers we are planting soon.  I'll admit, I'm quite nervous about it only because this will be our first time doing this.  And I'm tired of killing my plants!

Then Brit and I played EASTER BUNNIES and had an egg hunt for the girls.  We wrote down positive affirmations and put them inside of plastic eggs.  How cool is this? I mean, seriously, wouldn't you rather get positive notes than candy? I feel a new tradition coming on.  It was so much fun watching as they found the eggs we hid.  I will say that my favorite part was when they read their notes and seeing which ones they really liked. 

Happy E a s t e r, everybody!!!
