Egg hunt on Saturday, and lovely Easter outfits on Sunday. Jonas gave a marvelous talk and we enjoyed having the missionaries and an investigator over for dinner.
We celebrated for the previous 12 days with our "Eggs of Easter" scriptures, but I think the older kids are ready for a change in tradition. We watched Ten Commandments, enjoyed a simple Passover dinner (on Passover), and I'm looking into changing up our traditions to focus even more on our Savior, Jesus Christ, during this season. For Christmas we have started reading one Messianic name per day, and I think that we'll move that to Easter time next year. I love Easter, and I don't want it overwhelmed with chocolate. (I love chocolate too, but priorities need to be straightened out every once and a while!)

Great family. Great memories. Great traditions. Great love for the Savior.
Sounds like a good Easter. I agree that the focus should be more on the Savior.
