.Easter 2017

20170416 Easter Sunday (5)

We had an amazing Easter weekend. Despite the snow (which was not very convenient for our outside plans) we had such a happy time with the family celebrating the resurrection of Christ. I am so glad we have a holiday set apart each year where we can remember and focus on what that really means to us and recognize just how much we need Him.

I am forever grateful to Jesus Christ for coming to Earth and giving us an example of living that is beyond any kind of life I could have had without Him. I know that true happiness comes from living a life of service and purity. I am far from perfect but because of our Savior, I can be forgiven and that is the best gift of all.

Happy Easter!

We headed up to Cold Lake and went to church with Air's family. After church Grandma fed us an amazing meal!

.More of December

20161219 family party (34) edit

A week before Christmas we drove out to Air's parent's house in Cold Lake to celebrate with them a little early. We had so much fun… including two big surprises!

1. Air's Pop was called as the bishop on the Sunday we arrived there!

2. There was a knock at the front door and TESSA walked in from Hawaii!? She stayed all the way through New Years and it was so good to have her around again.

We had a little party with so much yummy food:
