Easter

Well, Easter... what a wonderful time of year. We are not only celebrating all that our loving Savior, Jesus Christ did for us but it is also a time of renewal. The earth is renewing all the beautiful things that warm weather brings. The flowers are starting to spring forth in pretty spring colors and little baby animals are starting make their arrivals. I love to see it all. I am so thankful that Heavenly Father gave us seasons and the many beauties that the earth provides. Yesterday, we took the kids out and made them pose for their annual spring pictures. They are so good to do it for us. :) They turned out cute and so I am posting some of my favorites. 

On another quick note, we survived our last High School Cheer Tryout this past Friday. YAY! They make me so nervous... even though they don't Alex. She will be a Senior next year. I can't believe it! She has grown up so fast. She is such a neat girl and I am thankful to have been blessed to be her mother.
