Finally a beautiful day! We have waited so long for a nice day and it couldn't have come at a better time. :) Easter is such a special day. I am so grateful for the Atonement and the power it has in my life. I love our Savior, Jesus Christ, so much and appreciate his sacrifice for me as well as all of us. Each day I need His love and patience!
It was also terrific to spend time with family. All of the boys except Zac were able to come home for lunch. Richie even came to our ward for church. :) Sometimes I miss the days of wrestling five little boys through sacrament meeting. Okay, maybe I don't miss the wrestling, but I do miss having them around. I'm grateful for the great lives they are living and appreciate that they are learning and growing even though it means they can't always be here.
After lunch Emmy and Eva had a little Easter Hunt in the front yard. Our customary place is the backyard, but it's still just too soggy!! Daren was lying on the couch and Emmy said, "Come and have a Easter egg hunt Daren!" Eva called the eggs "ball" and in the case of a pretty yellow egg, "apple". She and Emmy are both so adorable. We love having them here!
After the egg hunt, the boys took turns sharing their skills. Richie juggled golf balls for Emmy and Robbie caught jello jigglers in his mouth. Richie and Ty both gave it a shot as well, but Robbie is the champion jiggler catcher. We went back out front and the boys entertained us with a game of bocce ball. Robbie even attempted a sky high jiggler catch on the front lawn. It was such a fun day together!
When the girls were saying their goodbyes, I gave Emmy a big hug and told her to come again tomorrow. She said, "Okay!" Sounds like a good idea to me! I love our family so much and enjoy just watching them having fun together. :)
