April 20, 2014-Nixon's First Easter
We started off Easter Sunday with church at 9 a.m. Our 4th ward that we were in got split last week. It was quite a surprise. We are in the boundaries of the new 8th ward that was created here in Visalia. I was the Laurel Advisor in our old ward, but with the split everyone got released. So I was awaiting what my calling would be. I am the Relief Society Secretary. I am really sad to not be with the Laurels anymore, but I will have a good time serving with the ladies in Relief Society. It will be quite a change though. I also taught a combined Young Women lesson on the Apostasy and Restoration.
Once we got home, Nixon needed a nap and so I joined in the fun and took a nice Sunday afternoon nap. It was super great!!! When Nixon woke up, we did our little Easter celebration. He got an Easter basket with a book, rubber ball, toy bunny rattle, and bubbles. Travis played with him by blowing bubbles towards him. He liked it a lot and was pretty entertained. He would reach to try to pop the bubbles. It was really cute! Nixon is so so fun at this stage. I love how happy he is. He loves to squeal and smile. He loves to jump and he likes to slap his hands up and down on the kitchen floor, tile entry, and his highchair. Anything that makes a lot of noise.
I'm grateful for the Savior's sacrifice and resurrection that allows me to have an eternal family!!
