Easter Weekend

J's Mom came into town on Thursday (which was her birthday too) and we were able to spend a few days with her and show her how our life is here in Iowa. It was so fun to hangout with her and chat. Lila was a little unsure at first when we picked her up from the airport, but definitely warmed up once we got back home and in her territory. J had Friday off so him and his Mom took Lila to the children's museum while I had a nice trip to the grocery store with Sterling (no screaming Lila!!!). I made our Easter dinner that night and it was sooo yummy. Saturday we headed to Nauvoo. The Temple grounds were so beautiful, there were hundreds of tulips and daffodils in each flower bed. Easter Sunday Grandma left and we went to an Easter egg hunt/lunch with some good friends. Lila and Sterling looked so cute in their Easter outfits and I wish I could have gotten a good one with them together, actually, I wish I could have gotten one with all of us! We are so grateful for our Savior Jesus Christ and for all He did for us so that we can return with our Heavenly Father and families again. We hope all of your Easter's were wonderful!
