The Easter Bunny did make a visit again this year. We tease the kids that the eggs left all over the house are Easter Bunny droppings. We then yell, "OOoooh! Tyson and Timmy are touching Bunny poop" while the kids collect their eggs. I know, pretty lame, probably gross, parents. We made it to church and even into the chapel this Sunday. The song I enjoyed the most from the program was "God So Loved the World". I think it was close to the same arrangement that me and my mom sang in a stake choir. Pretty-pretty.
We had invited the Thorntons over for Easter dinner-the poor dears. Timmy wanted Turkey rather than ham and I forgot to stick it in the oven before church. They came over and eventually we ate Zac's rolls, but otherwise we had leftover chinese food, boiled eggs, a little Tilapia Zac whipped up and lots of chocolate eggs. After they left, it sounds so bad, and around 8pm we finally had our turkey dinner. It was still really nice being able to spend the time with the Thorntons. I truly consider them our family. I can't imagine screwing up on dinner invites like that and not giving myself a good house-elf head-whacking with anyone but the Thorntons. Hmmm...maybe I'm too comfortable around them. Sorry guys.
Anyway...
We finished the night off right with Zac reading out of the scriptures about the crucifixion and the resurrection. I truly am grateful for my Savior. He's made it possible for me to get past my flaws, repent, be forgiven. I'm glad we have had the chance to reflect on such a wonderful event!

Amy, your easter sounds like so much fun. I'm in the primary presidency again and wish we would have done an easter egg hunt before Easter. I love that as an activity, and taking some of the bunny out of Easter Sunday.
Grace has been remembering her friend, Tyson:) She remembers the kissing in Joyschool. I told her, "That was just a silly kissing phase, huh?" She giggled and said, "I guess. But I DID think he was cute." They were hilarious!
Thanks, Amy, Easter was perfect! And Rebecca! Tyson is taken, Kyra is going to marry him hehe, poor Tyson doesn't have a chance!
I love your story about Easter. That's awesome! (Probably because it sounds like something I would do!)
