Happy Easter!

It's a beautiful Easter Spring Day in Louisiana! What a perfect time to think of that Easter morning many hundreds of years ago when our Savior arose from the tomb that enslaved all mankind and made possible Salvation and Eternal Life. I can't say it as well as mormon.org, but I can quote it.

"Jesus is the Son of God, our Savior and Redeemer. Because of Him, death is not the end, and life takes on new meaning. We can change, we can start over--and we can live again with God. This, [and every] Easter, we celebrate His life and discover all that's possible because of Him...Because Jesus Christ is the Savior of all mankind it's possible for each of us to live again with God."

I know this is true or we wouldn't have left family and home to be here in Louisiana for 18 months.

President Riggs called 2 weeks ago to invite us fo Easter, and we accepted! What a muy delicioso spread. You can probably identify the front row. There's also baked beans that were almost as good as Arlenes, potato salad, fruit salad, coleslaw, homemade rolls, our ice cream jello and pink lemonade cake. And they sent leftovers home for all of us. No cooking tomorrow!

Sister Riggs is very much like Mom when it comes to decorating. We ate outside in the breezeway type area, and the table was beautifully set. Are the Walls and the Riggs cute people or what?
