Easter

These two sweet hearts came for Wayne's Easter message on Sunday...in their Easter finest.  Wayne spoke on Christ and his Atonement with fresh insight and love.  I was so happy to have all of my children in church for this.   

 Easter is here and we know this because we had the annual Welch Easter picnic and Egg throw. Sophia and Andrew love the Easter egg hunt tradition..but the egg throw stressed them out last year and so they left before that happened to them this year.                          

Alfie thought all of the eggs were balls...atleast this is what he said as he put them in his basket...then dumped them out and threw them.  He is a hoot.  He loves this hat and and doesn't take it off. He whispers "hat" over and over again. 

 Easter is a time of new birth and new beginnings... Lexi and Monson announced their new beginning with the birth of their baby this coming October.  We are so excited.  We can't wait to have another grandbaby.  Lexi has been so sick...but she is a trooper and her's and Monson's lives will be forever changed.  The Baby is about the size of a fig.

Laila participated in this annual event hiding the eggs.   She is at that difficult stage half girl- half woman where I don't really know what she wants to hold on to and what she is ready to let go of.  I guessed wrong this holiday.  She was pretty thrown on Easter morn when the easter bunny didn't show up.  I blew it....
