Happy Easter

Every Easter (and Christmas) my thoughts always turn to my Grandmother Ault, and how spectacular she made each holiday.  Today was no different.  I’ll always remember the MEGA-Easter egg hunts, the eggs with money in them, and the hand-made confetti eggs.  I have two of the eggs that my Grandmother Ault made for my two kiddoes at the time—Cameron & Karston.

This past week Karston knew he would have to give a talk in primary.  He thought hard about what he wanted to say—I gave him different ideas, we read some of the Easter story . . . and this is what he came up with:

 

“At first light Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Jesus arrived at the tomb.  The angel greeted the women and said:  “Fear not ye:  for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.  He is not here:  for he is risen, as he said.”  (Matthew 28:5-6)

I want to tell you what Easter means to me.  This is an egg that my Grandma gave to me when I was very small.  Sadly, she died of cancer, but I know that one day I will be resurrected, and I will get to have Easter egg hunts with her.  I know that my family will be forever, and one day everyone will be resurrected.

I want to bear my testimony that I know this church is true, and that we can all live again in Heaven.  In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.

 

I counted myself very lucky to have gotten to go in primary, and hear my sweet boy bear such a simple, but perfect testimony.  And, I know without a doubt, my Grandmother is already planning that Easter celebration!

Here are a few pictures from our day:  (and there might have been more than one confetti egg with Daddy’s name on it . . . )  :)

  Kayden wanted to ride to church with Daddy in his ‘cool’ car.  :)

 

Granny got to be with us too!
