Happy Easter 2012

We had a lovely week of Easter School. We learned about some interesting traditions around the world and also some fun candy facts (the jelly beans purchased for Easter would circle the globe 3 times!)...

We enjoyed focusing our attention on Jesus Christ through "scripture eggs" and also the online videos about His life on lds.org
One of my favorite activities that I had our family do was collect testimonies from prophets and rewrite them. We displayed these on our dining room window. On Friday we added our own. This was a very sweet activity. Today we enjoyed a Savior-focused Easter with church attendance, personal reflection, and an impromptu family testimony meeting. The Spirit was very sweet and strong.

We are thankful for our Heavenly Father's plan, our Savior's love and courage to fulfill His part, and our family's attempts at righteous living so we can return to Them forever.

How lovely this must have been. We are delighted that you focused on the Savior - without whom eternal life would be impossible.
