For family home evening this week we had a lesson about the resurrection. We started by making resurrection rolls. You wrap a crescent roll around a marshmallow, bake it, and when it is all done the marshmallow has disappeared. Get it?
They were really yummy! I forgot to mention earlier there was cinnamon sugar inside and on the outside :)
Then we had a lesson where the kids got to open up Easter eggs with scriptures and objects that relate to the resurrection story
This little guy can be frustrating. He loves to take his clothes off, but insists on wearing shoes in the house and loves to wear his jacket. So this is what we get...
Sometimes she really loves books. It would be nice if she would put her book away before she got the next one out. Oh well, she could be doing worse things than making a mess reading
She learned about the letter K this week
She and her brother love to play with the green slime/flubber
I don't ever get to go to the library with them, but this is how I imagine it goes all of the time... ;)
Our ward had a service day yesterday and our family had a lot of fun helping out. At one house we worked on cutting up and splitting a huge tree that blew down in the windstorm
This family lives on a five acre lot with lots of fun things for little kids to do
They have a huge water feature made out of a natural rock on their property. The kids liked climbing up on the big rock
They also have chickens
The kids got to help collect the eggs
After the kids learned how to collect real eggs from a stinky chicken coop, they did an urban Easter egg hunt
After Nixon's nap the kids found a suprise in the back yard
Today Lyza got to wear her new Easter dress to church
She and Nixon looked cute together
The Easter bunny even came while we were at church
Watch out ladies!
We have had a great Sabbath day so far and we're looking forward to yummy Easter dinner. Take care,
