Easter

What a better thing to do on a hazy Easter morning than to spend time with family. Darren and Liz had the blessing for their new addition, Avery Iona, this morning. It was a very special blessing, and Both Darren and Liz bore such touching testimonies. It made me think on this special Easter how lucky I am to have BOTH of my older brothers, Darren is so cute with his kids, he truely shows them how much he loves them. We share some fun memories from our youth, and he has always been such a good example to me. I love him and I am proud of the man he has become!
I am also VERY grateful for my older brother that came to this earth to die for all of us. Without him none of us would qualify for the thing we strive for most of all, eternal life with our Heavenly Father. We can repent because of his choice to take upon him OUR sins, and we can be with our families forever. I am truely grateful for this on this Easter sunday. I truely have more blessings than I deserve.

Sorry I missed it. Sounds like it was fun. Been bummed all day that I couldn't be two places at one time.

Here's a link for some fun picture collages:
