Easter Rolls Around Again

Today marked my final Sunday as a member of the old Millstream Ward, and it was a memorable day for myself and for the 25-or-so others who will, likewise, be looking for a new place to hang our hats come next week. Bishop Lake delivered a fond farewell address to us in sacrament meeting, and I got to join with the ward choir for one final time in putting on the Easter program, singing “O Savior, Thou Who Wearest a Crown” and “He Is Not Here.”

Afterward, the Plowman clan also enjoyed another good family dinner together, following which the kids took part in the annual Easter egg hunt in the backyard.

Dallin, at age 11, has apparently now outgrown the tradition and is "too school for cool," though he did roam through the yard, joining 13-year-old Kylee in keeping tabs on all of the goings-on.

Those still young enough to take part in the fun, namely Jenna, McKenna, Luke, Jackson, and Kira, ran ragged collecting their spoils.

At the end of the hunt, some of the parents joined in to help assess the damage and to (presumably) help eat the candy.

Good times were had by all.
