April 2011

Easter Weekend, we had Stake Conference.  Elder Nelson of the Quorum of the Twelve came and Elder Cook of the First Quorum of the Seventy.  It was very good.  After the Priesthood and Adult Sessions Saturday, Royce and I went to Outback with the Strands and Larsens, some good friends of ours.  We had Easter Dinner with the same after S.C. on Sunday.

On Monday, Christy and Jose came for dental work.  The kids LOVE to see the triplets!  They helped feed and play with them.  After naps, we went on a walk to the duck pond.  The kids road their bikes and Dunc and Brynne went to the rope swing.  Grandpa and Grandma Mitchell dropped by on their way back to Utah to see the kiddos.


We had an Easter egg hunt that night and did FHE using Easter eggs telling the story of Jesus's death and resurrection. I'm so grateful for the Savior, his selflessness and love, his example and Atonement and Resurrection.

I left for Women's Conference Wednesday and came back Friday night to attend the funeral of a close friend's mother on Saturday.  Royce held down the fort while I was gone, and I enjoyed a nice trip with good friends, good classes, and semi-good sleep!  My favorite part was probably Sis. Julie B. Beck's talk-the RS General President.  She is amazing...she knows who she is and why she is here.  I LOVE listening to her.
