Easter Sunday with the Plowmans

It's Easter Sunday! To help us celebrate the holiday, the General Authorities of the Church who spoke at yet another amazing general conference over the weekend have given us plenty of good reminders as to why we honor this day.

Following the conclusion of conference, my parents, my siblings, their spouses, my seven nieces and nephews, and I gathered this afternoon to participate in family dinner and an Easter egg hunt. The kids had a great time searching for hidden treasure all over the backyard.






This was really the first year that toddlers Jackson and Kira could do any of the hunting on their own, although many of us nevertheless aided them in their searching.




Once the hunt was over, they posed for a group picture:



Yes, I am definitely related to this motley crew.

Today also marked Jackson's second birthday, and we held a party for both him and Jenna, whose seventh birthday fell on Friday.

Good times were had by all. Happy Easter, everyone.
