Finally I have a post with cute pictures and fun things to write about. I have been thinking of Easter for a couple months now. Mainly because I try to make the girls matching dresses at the very least twice a year, one for Christmas and the other for Easter. So naturally when all the spring fabrics came out I bought my favorite right away and made the girls dresses back in February. They wore them on our last Sunday in Berkeley and haven't been allowed to since. Kaiyah was excited to finally wear it again and well, Laney just loves dresses period!
The week leading up to Easter we all got sick; a nasty flu bug that luckily came and went quickly but nonetheless awful. We still managed to dye Easter eggs
in between the girls being sick and me becoming sick. On Saturday we went to an egg hunt at a miniature golf course that our ward put on. We played arcades, hunted for eggs, and played a round of golf.
It was enjoyable and after wards Jeremy's brother Darrell came over with his little girl and we hung out, played tennis, and ate yummy steak and veggie kabobs for dinner. The girls went to bed fairly easily so the Easter Bunny could come. They were happy to find that he left them goodies in their baskets and had hid some eggs, even an egg in their church shoes (a tradition the Easter Bunny started with me when I was a kid.)
Laney quickly heard the word church and wanted to get her dress on and go. After church we did another egg hunt in the front yard. We had a wonderful church service and was reminded of how incredible our Savior is and His great sacrifice. It is such a blessing to know that He is by my side and is able to comfort me in a way no one else can. This is particularly true with some potentially HUGE news that I should feel capable of sharing later this week. But as all of my good friends know, any Air Force news is not worth me sharing anymore unless we have a signed, locked, and confirmed deal due to them always changing the scenario. But this is looking for "real" this time. Stay tuned :)
