The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Easter! My most favorite holiday of the year. I love the easter colors, coloring easter egss, easter baskets, easter decorations, and celebrating the resurrection of the Savior! The most wonderful gift that our Father in Heaven could bestow. This year we got a bonus blessing too! We were able to listen to prophets and apostles speak to us in general conference. AAahhhh. I am looking forward to listening to them again and again via the internet. BTW Did anyone else hear the 20-dollar-bill analogie and LOVE it? I thought that was a great way to illustrate the worth of a soul even though we have sinned. Please share your favorite part of Conference!

Yesterday David's parents had their traditional Easter get together. We ate great food (the Palmers love food) visited with all of David's siblings (everyone made it this year!) and had easter egg hunts. Hyrum caught on pretty fast!
The big kids are always so great to help the little kids.

Diving for treats in Sawdust. The kids have a Blast (refer to the post below for more Sawdust fun) and come out really dirty.


Clare was pretty proud of herself and all of the candy she collected........If you look in her basket it's mostly filled with sawdust but Hey! she had fun doing it.

There were so many wonderful talks this year, many of them written just for me, thank you very much!! I am more excited than ever to be a mom, and know that I can do it, and am just loving my kids and feel empowered because of the encouragement we got last weekend!
