It was so much fun to celebrate the Resurrection of our dear Savior Jesus Christ. We spent the weekend listening to our dear church leaders since Easter fell on Conference weekend. I personally love it when it falls on conference. Something special about hearing about our Lord for two days and being reminded how important He is in our lives and family.

We actually started the East celebration a couple of weeks earlier. The Foothill ward with the great help of Rosie Avery (Chris' great aunt) put on the first annual Foothill Easter Egg Hunt. The Relief Society stuffed about 500 Easter eggs the Thursday prior and we were hoping to have enough. We invited all who were in our ward boundary to come, inactive, non-members, everyone and it was a great turn out. We split the area, one for the smaller kids and a larger area for the older kids. It was a total blast and everyone had a great time.

A few days later we dyed our own Easter eggs and Luke liked dunking the eggs in every color. So there was not a pure color at all, but he had a blast and that is what it is all about. I love teaching him new traditions
Easter Sunday, we woke up to a very cold day with horrible wind, but between morning and the afternoon sessions of Conference, we took Luke out and had his own

| For being the first part of April, it was awesome to have the fruit tree in full blossom mode. It is all because of the warm, warm spring. Everything is about a month earlier than normal. |
He had so much fun looking all over the front yard looking for the eggs. He made out like a little bandit and the funniest part is that after the hunt if he saw something brightly colored in the yard he would think it was another egg or candy.
