He is Risen!

This Easter, three quotes have been resounding in my heart.

"No goodbye will last forever- #BecauseofHim"
"Death has no sting- #BecauseofHim"
"The grave has no victory- #BecauseofHim"

With my sweetheart Gramps passing away just days prior to Easter, I have been especially grateful for this Easter season and the opportunities I have taken to reflect on the Atonement and Ressurection of our Savior. What a sacred and happy holiday Easter is.

I am so grateful for the Gospel- for the reassuring truth that it imprints on my heart.

We celebrated Easter by having a nice dinner with Mom and Dad and enjoying the nice weather. Spring is beautiful- and there is no better time to reflect on our Savior and what he did for us as a whole and as individuals than in the bright warmth of flowers, color, sunshine, and beauty.

Cameron is still really young for some holiday traditions- we meant to dye eggs but didn't have time. We did however, have our first visit from the Easter bunny.
Cameron got a suit for church, a book about the true meaning of Easter, some bubbles and garden tools,  a ball, and a few candies.


My two good lookin' mens all dressed up in their Sunday best for the Easter Sabbath!






Grandma and Grandpa got Cameron a little Easter present as well: He got some more bubbles, a dinosaur, and shirt. 
Poor Grandma, just wants some cuddles but this boy is far too busy to sit on any lap for long!









#BecauseofHim- I have a solid testimony to the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am so grateful for the atonement, I am grateful for forever families.

What a wonderful Easter! I lost my grandpa right before Easter as well two years ago and it's nice to have that reminder that Because of Him, no goodbye is forever. We will definitely see our loved ones again. Thank goodness for our Savior and his love for us!
