Easter 2025

For the past couple of years, the church has talked about focusing our Easter celebrations on Christ and his resurrection. We've tried to do that by using Wendee Rosborough's book about Holy Week. This year the Church also put out daily lessons for Easter.

Tiffani gave me this beautiful wooden scene as an early birthday present. I love it.

 

We had the elders over to decorate eggs and we also made resurrection rolls. Elder Forese had never made them before. I learned about this last year and I think they're so cool.

Elder Forese also thought the empty tomb was pretty cool.

I am obsessed with my egg decorator. We've had it five years now and I never get tired of it.

I still love decorating eggs.

And so did the kids.

The Elders loved their baskets and were proud of their eggs.

David didn't get to make many because he was making our pizzas.

Baylie and I bought Easter dresses at Goodwill. Hers was $4.50 and looks like a work of art. I love it. Mine was $5.50 and from Old Navy.

We only had sacrament meeting on Sunday so we could spend more time worshipping at home. We were invited to the Workman's for Easter dinner. They had been my home teachers in Houston and their daughter Rissy Hummel and her daughter Tybee are now in our ward. It was so nice to join them - plus I didn't have to do much of the cooking. I just made rolls and deviled eggs.

I believe in Christ and am grateful for his atonement. Without it, everything else would be meaningless.
