Today we had a great Easter Sunday. I slept in, and woke up to find a trail of candy leading to a basket the “Easter Bunny” left for me. I have the best husband in the world. :) Later while Josh was at a church meeting the Easter Bunny came back and hid some eggs for him to find. It was a way fun, happy morning and we both felt like excited kids again (and got excited for the kid we’ll get to leave an Easter basket for next year).

After church we had some good friends from our ward over for an Easter dinner. Josh’s family has had a tradition of celebrating Easter by reading and learning about the Savior’s life for the week building up to His resurrection, then having an Easter dinner of food the Savior would have eaten. We tried it this year, and despite some unplanned-for adventures in the kitchen, it turned out well and we had a tasty dinner of fish, unleavened bread, and grapes (and rolls, as a backup for if when the homemade unleavened bread failed, and salad and potatoes, because they’re tasty). We really enjoyed having good friends over, too.

We hope you all enjoyed this Easter Sunday and got to remember, like we did, the wonderful blessings the Savior’s atonement and resurrection bring to our lives. Happy Easter!
