Easter weekend

We started off Easter weekend by earning our treats!  Well at least the kids did.  Cloudburst and Sunshine ran a 1 mile race for school.

Sunshine found a buddy from class...

...and Cloudburst found some friends too.

And they're off!

Here we have a couple cute clappers.

Here comes Cloudburst, with a time of 9:26, which was fourth place for women overall.

Our friend T. came in at 13:02...

...and Sunshine came in at 13:50

Of course the best part is the fun stuff afterwards.

Then we came home in time for the neighborhood easter egg hunt!  T's mom was in charge and did a great job.  The kids came home extremely happy, and we started looking for candy to pilfer.  Parent tax.

Easter morning!  We saved Easter baskets until after church.  We actually got a decent family picture...

...after a try...

...or two.

Once again we are reminded of all the blessings we have through the Atonement of Jesus Christ.  As our kids say, "He was dead, but then was alive again!"  It is a miracle and we are so grateful to remember it at this time of year.
