Easter Weekend in Glide

By the time Easter weekend came, we were all ready to get out of town, even if it was just for a few days.  It has been a very busy past few weeks, so it was nice to leave it all behind and drive out to the beautiful country to be with family for Easter.  I am so glad we went! Saturday was a beautiful day and we got to play outside all day long, dye eggs that night, cuddle up and watch a movie all together and eat lots of great food that Grandma Sue made for us! Sunday was another great day, even though the rain came back.  The boys were very excited to see what the Easter bunny had left them in their baskets and all the eggs he had hidden around the house.  We talked to them about the resurrection as well that morning and watched some of the movies on lds.org about it.... I love all the movies they have been putting up there lately.  Our boys really enjoy watching them and get a lot from them! Just the other day Jackson was talking about something from one of the videos from Christmas time they did on Christ's birth.  I was impressed he remembered it so well! Anyways, we headed into church that day where there were many great talks and lessons on Christ, and then came home and had a wonderful Easter dinner all together before we finally, very hesitantly, packed back up and headed home to Portland.  The boys cried as we said our goodbyes and got into the car, but quickly fell asleep as soon as we started to drive since it had been a very fun weekend of play! They sure love Grandpa, Grandma and Aunt Heather and Glide!!
