"In our search to obtain relief from the stresses of life, may we earnestly seek ways to simplify our lives. May we comply with the inspired counsel and direction the Lord has given us in the great plan of happiness. May we be worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and follow the guidance of the Spirit as we navigate this mortal journey. May we prepare ourselves to accomplish the ultimate purpose of this mortal test- to return and live with our Heavenly Father."

Easter 09

Before we get to the Easter festivities I'll do a quick little update on Mr. Sam. The above picture shows one of the new ways he figured out how to sit. He'll stop in mid-crawl to just sit like this and look around. It's pretty funny. He has also tried a couple times to take a few steps on his own. The other day he took one step all by himself. He is getting pretty good at standing on his own and he is constantly practising that technique. He is going to be running around any day, just like his sister.
W invited some family and friends over for an Easter dinner. It was a lot of fun and we had some yummy food!

We had a little Easter egg hunt for the kiddies. Carly loved to look for the eggs, she also enjoyed eating the candy inside of the eggs.


(Saturday) Carly had fun coloring and decorating some Easter eggs. Sam observed from his highchair.
