In Our Family the Past Two Weeks...
There are LOTS of photos for this blog post, so ENJOY!
Our weather has gone from super nice and in the 60's to super cold and snowy! On one of the nicer days, we went and enjoyed the backyard as a family...

Spiritually Speaking...
With it being EASTER SUNDAY, Christ and the Atonement have been on my mind a lot! Church was very uplifting today and at the end of Sacrament meeting, the choir sang "I Wonder When He Comes Again" and the congregation joined in on the 2nd verse. It was so touching that I couldn't contain my emotions and was brought to tears because of the beautiful gift that Christ has given us. The words of this primary song are so beautiful that I wanted to include them here (at least the 2nd verse that we sang all together today...)

I wonder, when he comes again,

Will I be ready there 

To look upon his loving face

And join with him in prayer?

Each day I'll try to do his will

And let my light so shine

That others seeing me may seek

For greater light divine.

Then, when that blessed day is here,

He'll love me and he'll say,

"You've served me well, my little child;

Come unto my arms to stay."

 

Also, the Church has put out a new Easter video just released this past week and it has already surpassed 3 million views! Our family has watched it close to 2 dozen times between us all and it has quickly become one of my favorites! It's not very long but really puts into perspective what we have "Because of Him"...
