We love the Easter Bunny, coloring eggs and when the kids were younger the BIG Easter egg hunts. I especially love the family dinner with ham and cheesy potatoes. (My brother Charlie makes a mean Coke a' Cola ham but I will share that at a later time)
I decided this year that I really wanted to do something each evening as a family to remember our savior and the great sacrifice that he made for us. And so I have something planned for each night as we study what the scriptures describe as Christ's last days on earth.
Tonight we read the Parable of the Donuts and as a treat we had... you guessed it!
Donuts! I love how the kids each took something different from the story and how no matter how many times or different ways we hear it there is always something to learn.
I am grateful for my savior Jesus Christ, and hope that you will take time this Easter season to ponder his life on this earth.
Hoppy Easter to you guys. ;)
ReplyDeleteSadly, our paths will not cross. We're leaving Friday evening. Unless you'll be here on Friday.
I didn't get the box mailed today. It just didn't feel quite complete. It is now though. I got the final thing for it tonight. Would you mind if I left it at my mom's house for you, or would you prefer to have it shipped?
Anyways, let me know.
Looking forward to seeing you!
ReplyDeleteI just read that parable last week. It does a great job of illustrating the atonement.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you all!!!!
