Jakie enjoyed eating his gift from the Easter Bunny--a little stuffed pig.
This will have to do as Jake's official "My First Easter" photo. Too bad we didn't get any cute pics of his church duds (or any of the kids' cute church duds---and they looked so cute).
The ward choir performed an Easter Program for sacrament meeting and it went extremely well. We rehearse in the Relief Society room, and everyone has to bring their kids with them. So needless to say, practices are less than perfect. But for some reason, we always sound fabulous in the chapel. Part of it's due to the talent of the choir and part of it's due to help from the Spirit. Here's a copy of the program:
I probably should have put a lot more work into it than I did, but I was pleased that it came together so wonderfully. The bulk of the text we read was from President Thomas S. Monson's talk, "He Is Risen." If you haven't read it, it's an absolutely beautiful and true testimony of the Savior.
After church, we were off to Galveston to have Easter dinner with Dad, Joey and Lee. When we got their, Dad realized that their were EGGS hidden everywhere! Apparently, the Easter Bunny, knowing that the boys were on their way, had made a delivery at Grandpa's house as well. The boys were greatly intrigued.
Afterwards we enjoyed a delcious Rib Roast dinner with Lee's Macaroni & Cheese and my over-salted New Potatoes---plus Banana Pudding and Joey's Faux Cherry Cheesecake for dessert. We were absolutely stuffed when the festivities were over.
It was a crazy, wonderful day.

That looks like so much fun. The food sounds delicious, and I am in awe of you putting together an Easter program for your ward choir. I would pee my pants if they asked me to be ward choir director. I bet the kids thought that you can never have too many egg hunts, that's what mine think.
